The rav is listed in the Jewish Communal Register of NYC (Margashis 1917-18) as the Rabbi of the “New People Synaguage – Orthodox” on 151 Clinton St. ( not sure of in the East Side or in Brooklyn, there is a Clinton St. in both nieghberhoods).
The correct spelling of his surname is Rabbi IJ Estersohn, he lived at the time on 80 Willet St.
Miller, it is clinton st. in the lower east side, that is the first right off Grand st. [the shortcut] to the Wmsbg bridge, Willet st. is just 4 blocks to the east, closer to the FDR drive.

Thanks, it is pretty interesting name for an Orthodox Congregation, does anyone have more details for this Kehilah.
I also find some Rabbi S. Buchler as the Rabbi of this organization, any idea who this might be?
