The Jewish Historical Society of South Carolina (JHSSC) invites you to our Fall meeting, “Jewish Roots, Aiken Branches: From Shtetl to Small Town South,” on Sunday, November 16, 2014, to celebrate the unveiling of a historic marker at Aiken’s Congregation Adath Yeshurun, a small town synagogue nearing its hundredth anniversary. 

 

The weekend will include a tour of Aiken and its historic sights on Saturday, a panel discussion of “Aiken Pioneers, Then and Now,” as well as a talk presented by Richard Gergel and Robert Rosen on the early Jews of South Carolina. The weekend will conclude with the Historical Marker dedication, and a reception to follow.
