A. S. Blanckensee was another significant figure of the nineteenth century Birmingham Hebrew Congregation. He was president of its council between 1870-1873. Nineteenth century newspaper reports featuring the good work done by Jews in the wider context of the town were important indicators of integration and the growing dialogue between Jew and non-Jew.
