How One Jewish Immigrant Named Isaias Hellman Created California
![Jese Leos](https://labyrinth.bookgemstone.com/author/john-dos-passos.jpg)
Isaias Hellman was a Jewish immigrant who played a major role in the development of California. He was born in Germany in 1842 and arrived in San Francisco in 1859. He started out as a clerk in a dry goods store, but he quickly made a name for himself as a successful businessman. In 1865, he co-founded Hellman, Temple & Co., which became one of the largest banks in California. He also helped to establish the Los Angeles Pacific Railroad, which connected Los Angeles to the rest of the state. Hellman was a generous philanthropist who supported many causes, including education and healthcare. He died in 1924, but his legacy continues to this day.
Isaias Hellman's Early Life
Isaias Hellman was born on September 3, 1842, in Heidenheim, Germany. His parents, Samuel and Babette Hellman, were Jewish immigrants from Poland. Isaias had two older sisters, Henrietta and Julie. The Hellman family was poor, and Isaias had to work from a young age to help support his family. He started out as a peddler, selling goods door-to-door. In 1853, when Isaias was 11 years old, his family decided to emigrate to the United States. They arrived in San Francisco in 1859.
