Mrs. Lewisohn (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Harry Angstrom said:
    Adolf Lewisohn was a New York investment broker and philanthropist who died in 1938. He was a large contributor to Columbia University among many other New York City beneficiaries.
  • Richard Norton said:
    We have to be careful there are two brothers: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Lewisohn en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolph_Lewisohn I looked through the marriage records for Manhattan and added the spouses to their Wikipedia articles: Adolph married Emma Cohn on June 26, 1878 in Manhattan Leonard married Rosalie Jacobs (1847-1900) on June 29, 1870 in Manhattan Looks like I found one spouse dead in the year 1900, that explains why she wasn't mentioned in the obit. The woman doesn't look 60 years old so this may be the wife of one of the sons.

    Mrs Adolph Lewisohn (the former Emma Cahn) died in 1916, "in her sixtieth year." See NYT on July 29, 1916 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9407E2D7173BE633A... The obituary mentions two sons: Sam A and Julius A and grandchildren. So this could be one of their wives.NYT searching finds that Mrs Samuel Lewisohn was very much a socialite, active in charities, and left art to museums. I also find mention of a Dr. and Mrs. Richard Lewison and a Mrs. Philip Lewisohn. So there are lots of possibilities.

    Continuing the hunt. It is probably NOT Mrs. Samuel Adolph Lewisohn, since they were not married until 1918. See query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9A0CE6D81130E433A... But Mrs Philip Lewisohn was Cleopatra in a charity pageant on December 6, 1913 See NYT, December 7, 1913 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9E0DE3DF1F3BE633A... According to NYT, November 18, 1917 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=940CE3DA113AE433A... She was the daughter of Randolph Guggenheimer. NYT, May 6, 1897 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B06E5DB143DE633A... reveals that her name was Adele, but I have been unable to find any pictures of her.
