Originally named Kehilath Jacob, Clarksdale's first synagogue was
built here in 1910. In celebration of the new temple, a Torah was
shipped from New York City and carried to the temple by members of
the congregation. In 1929, a larger temple was constructed on Catalpa
Street. Beth Israel's first Rabbi was Aaron Freyman.
