Solomon Jacobs
Solomon Jacobs (9 July 1861 – 6 August 1920) was an English, later Canadian rabbi.[1]
Born and educated in England, Jacobs became minister of the Amalgamated Congregation of Israelites in Kingston, Jamaica around 1886. There, he lobbied successfully for the removal of a stamp tax on Jewish weddings.[1]
In 1900, Jacobs moved to Toronto to become rabbi of the recently completed Holy Blossom synagogue. Jacobs' influence quickly grew beyond that temple and he became a representative of Jews throughout the area.[1]
