| MONTAGU, LILY, EDITED BU ERIC CONRAD In Memory of Lily H Montagu: some Extracts from her Letters and Addresses Amsterdam: Polak and Van Gennep, 1967, First Edition . Lily Montagu, (1873-1963), belonged to a wealthy and well connected Anglo-Jewish family and was brought up in unquestioning Jewish Orthodoxy which demanded responsibility from the rich towards the poor. Her father, Samuel Montagu, who became Liberal MP for Whitechapel in 1885, was an active philanthropist at a time when migrants fleeing the pogroms of Eastern Europe were creating new Jewish communities in East London. Established Jews like the Montagu family worked to maintain Judaism but also to anglicise and assimilate the new community as quickly and smoothly as possible in order to deflect anti-Semitism, and Lily’s initial efforts to work with poor Jewish young people, providing lessons for a small group of girls and organising Children’s synagogue services in English, took place in this context..
