Congratulatory messages were received by the Connecticut Jewish Ledger today from state governmental officials on the Jewish weekly’s 33rd anniversary.
Founded in 1929 by the late Samuel Neusner, with the assistance of Rabbi Abraham J. Feldman, the weekly was originally known as the Springfield Jewish Ledger. Later the title was changed to the present one as the weekly’s circulation and news coverage was extended to cover the entire state. Rabbi Feldman has been the only editor of the Ledger since it was started 33 years ago.
