(Act of Parliament). A Bill (as amended by the committee) to Regulate the Celebration of Marriages in Newfoundland.
pp. 2. Unbound. Sm. folio.
(London): 20th May, 1817
"Act not to affect Marriages already contracted, or the Quakers, or Persons professing the Jewish Religion.” Newfoundland was one of the earliest European settlements in North America. Life in the British Empire’s oldest colony, which joined Canada as late 1949, was notoriously tough, yet attracted a certain number of hardy settlers. It is believed that the first Jewish settler was an English Jew engaged in the fur trade, who came to Newfoundland around 1800. During the first half of the 19th-century, several further Jewish families settled in Newfoundland, primarily in the region of St. John's. For the original Act, see Kestenbaum Sale 90, lot 92.
