Re: B' Nai Israel Dues Records 1924-1939
Dear Mrs. Andelman,
After searching the archives at Temple B'Nai Israel, I don't think I found anything of value. At any rate this is what I located:
In a membership dues ledger of 1926-1939
$155.00 in 1924 equals $1550.99 in 2001
$155.00 in 1937 equals $190.46 in 1924
