The Four Lands Of Lithuania

The Four Lands of Lithuania were a historical region of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth that was home to a large Jewish population. The region was made up of the following four provinces:

• Vilnius
• Grodno

• Minsk

The Jewish population of the Four Lands was estimated to be around 800,000 in the 18th century. Jews played a major role in the economy of the region, and they were also active in religious and cultural life.

The Journey To London

In the late 19th century, many Jews from the Four Lands began to emigrate to England. They were fleeing persecution and poverty in their homeland, and they hoped to find a better life in England.

The journey to London was long and difficult. The emigrants had to travel by land and by sea, and they often faced discrimination and prejudice along the way. However, despite the challenges they faced, many Jews from the Four Lands were able to make a new life for themselves in England.
