"Jews of the Russian empire formed a special group among late 19thC immigrants. They came to the US fleeing persecution .. Jewish emigration grew in the 1870s, but the numbers leaving Russia exploded in the 1880s.

This was partly the result of pogroms set off by the assassination of Tsar Alexander II in 1881"🎶

"In Philadelphia, four major Jewish banks emerged: the Blitzstein Bank, the Lipshutz Bank, the Rosenbluth Bank, and the Rosenbaum Bank. All had similar patterns of development and activity. They were family enterprises generally founded during the 1890s, and they

became prosperous in the first decade of the twentieth century. Three, the Rosenbluth, Lipshutz, and Rosenbaum banks, were founded by Jewish immigrants from the Austro-Hungarian empire."
