The organizers were: Reverend Jake Oldham, Reverend Charles C. Bates, Reverend H. M. L. Mitchem, Richard Hyman and John Jackson. The meeting was held in the front room of James Jackson's home, located on Orleans Avenue, presently known as Dumesnil Street. The Church moved from that site to an old school house (Parkland Colored School) on Orleans Avenue. We moved a third time to 36th Street and Virginia Avenue. In 1886, the Sunday School Department was organized under the pastorage of Reverend J. W. Washington.

My synagogue growing up was a very nice, standard, concrete building across the street from a public middle school on Long Island. I can't even compare my old synagogue to Plum Street! I've never been in a Catholic cathedral in my life, but this is what I always envisioned them as! Golden, historic, EXTREMELY high ceilings, a balcony for the choir/orchestra, long pews, the smell of candles and hard-wood... the ambiance and warmth of this place just surrounds you! I've been to a few Shabbat services as well as Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashannah. Unfortunately my budget can't fit in the annual dues beyond my free 1st year (for being under 35) so until I can afford to be an official congregant again, I'll have to visit on a tour. I highly recommend that anyone - gentile or Jew, tourist or local - visit this temple! It is a part of history, not just for Reform Judaism in the US but for Cincinnati and architecture as well!
