... Bialystok’s Jewry was active in the rebirth
of Israel before Zionism was formally estab-
lished by Dr. Herzl in 1897. In the early 1880's,
a group known as “BILU” (House of Israel Go
Forth) was formed in Russia with offices in
Bialystok. The first group left for Israel in 1882
and founded Rishon Lezion (with the help of
the Rothschilds). My parents married in 1889.
They wanted to join the second group but were
refused permission to leave by the Russian
government. In the ensuing years immigrants
continuously flowed from Bialystok to Israel.
From my class in 1920, 14 out of 29 left for
Israel by 1935. ...Connected nodes
