Trinidad, Colorado
Abstract
Programs, brochures, and other documents offer detailed descriptions of "firsts" in Trinidad Jewish history and Temple Aaron, including commemorations of 70 years of the local B'nai B'rith lodge, 60 years since the laying of the Temple Aaron cornerstone, Temple Aaron's centennial (1863-1963), and Trinidad as part of Colorado's bi-centennial. Correspondence, articles, and services are also included. Especially poignant are copies of condolence notes after the deaths, due to illness, of two Jewish Trinidad brothers, Jesse and Alfred Sanders.
