The history of the Jews in Jersey dates back to at least the 1790s.[1] There was a community in Jersey from the 1840s. The Jersey Old Hebrew Congregation was founded in 1843 and closed around 1870.[2]
As of 2015 there were about 85 Jews living in Jersey, although the number was thought to be shrinking.[3] In 2021, the island’s Synagogue experienced significant growth in its membership, following the arrival of several new Jewish families.
World War Two
Enemy aliens, people born in a country with which Britain was at war, were restricted from entering Britain without a permit.[4]Шаблон:Rp Accordingly, a few of Jewish faith became trapped in Jersey when the islands were occupied. In addition, a few locals decided to remain in Jersey rather than evacuate in June 1940.
Following the invasion of 1940, Jersey was forced to pass laws by the German occupiers, requiring the identification of Jews. All non Jersey and British foreigners (aliens) had already been required to register with the police, but the records did not mention their faith. An advertisement appeared in the newspaperШаблон:Which in October 1941 calling on all Jews to identify themselves.[5] The Germans issued identity cards to everyone, which listed their nationality and faith.
