- Temple B'Nai Israel is a Conservative movement congregation (though a member of the Union for Reform Judaism), and was established in 1894 as the Olean Hebrew Association located in Olean, Cattaraugus County, New York. The congregation was established by Harris W. Marcus, a native of Mobile, Alabama who had come from Brooklyn and settled in Olean in 1881, establishing the first Jewish community in the region. Its attendance peaked during the World War II era as Jewish communities joined in solidarity against the ongoing Holocaust. A Sefer Torah was donated in 1941 by Oscar Rosenbloom, a local merchant. As of 2017, membership had fallen to 23 families. At the time, B'Nai Israel still held regular services twice a month, but was reported to be in jeopardy of closing within the decade because of the ongoing exodus of young people away from the Olean area. Since deconsecrating its synagogue in 2020, it has rented space in the former Saint John's School on North Union Street for services. (en)
