Abraham Naftalin (1870-December 25, 1948, Glasgow)

At least five of his sons were active in the Zionist movement in Glasgow, primarily in the Glasgow Commission of the Jewish National Fund
Timeline
- 1906 While the immigrants were prepared to leave representation in the hands of the establishment, they sought more internal independence. One recurring issue was the provision of kosher meat. In 1905 a deputation of South Siders, including Abraham Naftalin (an entrepreneur who had arrived in Glasgow during the 1880s) and Bernard Glasser (the son-in-law of a South Side rabbi) who had leading roles in several religious organisations, asked the United Synagogue to construct a Board of Shechita for the whole of Glasgow Jewry. Their scheme, motivated by religious as well as secular (the price of meat) demands, proposed representatives for this board to be elected at mass meetings, who would serve alongside representatives of the various synagogues. Shochetim had to be engaged and work under the supervision of an Eastern European rabbi. The surplus of the sales of kosher meat could be used for the burial of the poor and the finance of the newly founded Talmud Torah school. The board would meet alternatively at Garnethill and on the South Side, but public meetings were to take place in the Gorbals.[2] No agreement could be reached on these proposals. The conflict about shechita and the case of a dismissed clergyman on the South Side led to the Garnethill establishment giving up their attempts to control the immigrants by means of the United Synagogue. On the initiative of Gamethill the organisation was disbanded in 1906".[3]
