Jacobson, Jacob, 1888-1968

Hide Profile

Dr. Jacob Jacobson was born in Schrimm (now Śrem, Poland) on November 27, 1888. Jacobson was a historian and archivist, as well as director of the Gesamtarchiv der deutschen Juden from 1920 to 1939. In 1938 he published Jüdische Trauungen in Berlin, 1723-1759 . As archivist and historian, he solicited Jewish communities throughout Germany for records, and often retained the most records from smaller Jewish communities in Germany, which made up a significant part of this collection. In May 1943 he was deported to Theresienstadt and after liberation immigrated to Great Britain in 1945. After liberation, Jacobson published two major works, Die Judenbürgerbücher der Stadt Berlin, 1209-1851 (1962) and Jüdische Trauungen in Berlin, 1759-1813 (1968). Jacobson died in Bad Neuenahr on May 31, 1968.
