Malcolm Henry Stern (born on January 29, 1915 – January 5, 1994) was an American rabbi, historian, and genealogist.[1] He is considered the "dean of American Jewish genealogy."[2]

Early life

Stern was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Arthur Kaufman Stern and Henrietta Stern (née Berkowitz).[3] When he was a young child, his family moved from Philadelphia to a farm in Fox Chase, Pennsylvania, where he grew up. He had one brother, Edward Stern.

Stern's family was from the early German Jewish community of Philadelphia.[4] His father and grandfather worked at the family business, Jacob Stern & Sons, where they were hides and tallow processors. In the 1920s, Stern's father sold his share of the business to retire to a farm in Fox Chase "where he attempted to be an author, playwright, and painter, as well as gentleman farmer." After the 1929 Stock Market Crash, Stern's father became an independent real estate agent.[4]

Stern's mother was active in organizing Jewish summer camps for Philadelphia-area children. She was involved in supporting the National Farm School (now the Delaware Valley College of Science and Agriculture), which was founded by her uncle, Rabbi Joseph Krauskopf in 1896. Stern's mother's ashes are interred there. Stern's mother was also active with the local Juvenile Aid Society "that supervised on an individual case-work basis, Jewish children placed in foster homes." The foster children would often spend Sundays at the family's farm in Fox Chase.[4]

Stern said that when they moved from the tight-nit German Jewish community in Philadelphia to Fox Chase, "as that neighborhood's first Jews ... [he and his brother] met antisemitism head-on." They were chased home and called derogatory names.[4]

Bildung

For parts of his childhood, Stern's parents took the family to Europe, where they traveled extensively. He learned German from a German governess in Hamburg. Stern spent seven months in school in Lausanne, Switzerland.[4]

In 1935, Stern received a BA from the University of Pennsylvania. In 1937, Stern received a Bachelor of Hebrew Letters from Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati, Ohio. He earned a Master of Hebrew Letters in 1941 and the Doctor of Hebrew Letters in 1957, all from Hebrew Union College. In 1966, Stern received a Doctor of Divinity degree from Hebrew Union College.

Career

Rabbinic career

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Stern was the fifth member of his family to be ordained as a rabbi at Hebrew Union College. In 1941, Stern became assistant rabbi to Rabbi Fineshriber[4] at the Reform congregation, Keneseth Israel, in Philadelphia. After the war, from 1946 to 1947, Stern returned to work as a rabbi at Keneseth Israel.

In 1942, Stern was one of 90 Reform rabbis signing aid in support of Palestine, "opposing growing secularism and favoring greater emphasis on transcendent moral and religious values and principles in American life."[5]

In 1943, Stern took a sabbatical to serve a Chaplain in the US Army Air Corps. During this time, during World War II, Stern "survived a plane crash in Casablanca in which thirteen persons were killed."[6]

Norfolk, Virginia

From 1947 to 1964, Stern was Rabbi of Congregation Ohef Shalom in Norfolk, Virginia. While in Norfolk, Stern "spoke out strongly against segregation."[6]

In 1960, Stern edited the Union Songster for Reform Judaism. He co-edited Songs and Hymns for Gates of Prayer, the New Union Prayer Book (GOP) that is a Reform Jewish siddur. He chaired the committee that created Shaarei Shira/Gates of Song.

New York, New York

From 1964 to 1980, Stern was the first Director of Rabbinic Placement for Reform Judaism for the Central Conference of American Rabbis in New York City.

In 1981, Stern was hired as Adjunct Professor of Jewish History at Hebrew Union College's Jewish Institute of Religion. He was also a counselor for student field work. Hebrew Union President, Dr. Alfred Gottschalk, said Stern's "scholarship, his pioneering seminal research in American Jewish genealogy and writings remain a rich legacy and memorial."[1]

Genealogy career

Stern's interest in genealogy "started in grade school when he traced the descendants of Charlemagne for an assignment."[6]

From 1949 to 1994, Stern was the genealogist for the American Jewish Archives in Cincinnati.

In 1960, Stern published Americans of Jewish Descent, in which he "traced members of Jewish immigrant families that arrived in the United States before 1840."[6] Two more editions of the book followed: 1978's First American Jewish Families: 600 Genealogies, 1654–1977 and 1991's First American Jewish Families: 600 Genealogies, 1654–1988. The first volume was "an eight-pound tome containing 26,000 names" and "was the fruit of eight years of labor over musty archives and yellowed family records."[1] The book was the "first genealogical survey of Jewish families who settled in this country between 1654 and 1840... [and] was hailed as the most valuable research tool in the field of American Jewish history in many years."[1] That volume had over 50,000 surnames. The work in these books was a source for much of Stephen Birmingham’s 1981 book, The Grandees: America's Sephardic Elite.

Stern was responsible for helping to establish almost every Jewish genealogical society in the United States. He hosted the first of what would become annual summer conferences on Jewish genealogy sponsored by International Association for Jewish Genealogy (IAJGS).[2]

Activism

  • NARA Independence (1981-1984)
    • In 1981, when President Ronald Reagan's budget threatened the National Archives, Stern spearheaded efforts of genealogy and historical communities to support Archives Independence Bill S1421, "rallying their respective member organizations to conduct a vigorous campaign for NARS independence." On June 21, 1984, the United States Senate voted unanimously to S. 905, a bill to restore independence to the National Archives by separating it from the General Services Administration. On August 2, 1984, the House of Representatives passed a similar legislation.[7]
  • In 1989, Stern testified before Congress, successfully arguing that the position of Archivist of the United States should be awarded to a scholar and "not an administrator."[6][2]
  • In 1990, Stern was the genealogical representative to the National Archives Advisory Council. He was a member of the Advisory group that founded RAGAS, the Russian-American Genealogical Archival Service. One outcome was the preparation of four American genealogists for a genealogical mission to Russia. "The goal of this mission was to educate Russian archivists."[6]

  2. Thou shalt use family traditions with caution and only as clues.
  3. Thou shalt not accept as gospel every written record or printed record.
  4. Thou shalt not hang nobility or royalty on your family tree without verifying with experts.
  5. Thou shalt clearly label the questionable and the fairy tale.
  6. Thou shalt handle all records in such a way that the next users will find them in the same condition you did.
  7. Thou shalt credit those who help you and ask permission of those whose work you use.
  8. Thou shalt not query any source of information without supplying postage.
  9. Thou shalt respect the sensitivities of the living in whatever you record but tell the truth about the dead.
  10. Thou shalt not become a genealogical teacher or authority without appropriate training and certification.[2]
