Haym Salomon (1740 – 1785), “the Jew who saved America”
- He financed the American Revolution.
- 1781, Washington’s army was deserting, out of funds, the war was being lost.
- Salomon raised the funds, and supported our first four presidents.
- Without him, the War for Independence would have been lost.
- He was imprisoned by the British, lost his health, died young.
- The government never paid him back.
- He died penniless(at 44 years of age), as did his wife, as did his children.
- His grandchildren appealed to Congress, which admitted money was owed, but never paid.
- In 1926 (100 years ago), a statue honoring him was proposed for Washington, DC, but never built.
