Title page of A History of Morristown Jewry and The Center and Privilege, Clubs, and Organizations in the Jewish Community Center, Morristown, NJ This undated document was probably written in the late1940's based on the content and the condition of the paper on which it was printed. It appears to have been prepared for a membership brochure as it explains all the activities that take place for different age groups and different interests. The history ends with the description of the construction of the building though there is one sentence indicating some of the current board members serve until 1950. The language in Carl Scherzer's "Early Jewish History" written in October 1977 appears to be based on this document. This document was discovered in April 2010 in preparation for the Time Capsule Burial.
