- Admin History/Bio
- Betty Goldstick Lindgren (1892-1984) was a prominent member of several Toronto Jewish social service organizations. She was born in Latvia, the daughter of Sarah and William (Wolf) Goldstick. The couple had ten children. The family came to Canada in 1904 when Betty was a young child. She studied at Phoebe School, and later went on to the University of Toronto and earned her degree in 1919. She began teaching and married a Swede named Karl Tycko Lindgren. They had two children, but only their son, Edward, survived.
- Betty was involved in the Herzl Girls' Zionist Society as well as the Deborah Chapter of Hadassah. She was also a Toronto delegate to the first Canadian Jewish Congress in Montreal, 1919. Her brothers Maurice and Edward owned the E & M Wrecking Building Company. Her sister, Dorothy Dworkin, was a trained midwife and owner of Dworkin Shipping Agents with her husband Henry. Her brother Isadore was a professor at the University of Western Ontario. Her brother David was a lawyer and labour activist. Her other siblings were Emma, Celia, Annie and Jean. Betty passed away on November 6, 1984.
- Custodial History
- The records were donated by Edward Lindgren, Betty's son, in 1978. They were all part of 78-10/1 and included a list of items. Some of the material, such as the books, Jewish newspapers, and magazines have been separated from the fonds and placed into MG 9. The Herzl Girls Zionist Society minutes and records were placed in MG2 J1K shortly after they arrived. A file list of items included in this fonds has been created and is available below. A number of non-Canadian periodicals and books have been removed from the fonds. A list of these items is included with box 54-2-4. Several of these were put aside for auction, and several might be integrated into the OJA's publication holdings at a later date.
- Scope and Content
- The records in this fonds document the life and activities of Betty Goldstick Lindgren. They include correspondence, memorabilia, press clippings, invitations, certificates, programs as well as an autograph book and family record book.
- The fonds also includes family photographs of Betty and the Goldstick family.
- Notes
- The textual records have been placed in acid-free files, with some of the more delicate items in melinex folders.
- Name Access

- Custodial History
- The items donated were in posession of Betty Rosenberg's daughter Anne Kurita.

- Betty Cohen was born in Whitechapel District, East end of London, England on December 30, 1930. She was married twice, first on October 16, 1943 to Joseph Gauvin and agian on December 30, 1957 to Cyrel Rosenberg.
- Prior to immigration to Canda around 1937, Betty's mother, Bessie, sang vaudeville songs for shillings in London's local pubs. Her father, Sidney "Sid" Cohen, made a living doing odd jobs. According to family history, rising debt due to Sid's gambling habits prompted Sid Cohen to pack up his family and immigrate to Canada.
- First settling in Vancouver, the Cohen family soon moved to Toronto. While searching for work, Sid Cohen experienced firsthand the open practice of racial discrimination in employment practices. This expereince led to the change in the family's surname. As described by his granddaughter Anne Kurita, "as he crossed the road from Simpson's to Eaton's, he changed the family name from "Cohen" to "Collins" and got a job as a traveling salesman."
- Betty's education soon ended and she began working to help support the family and soon married Gauvin.
- The Gauvin family, included their daughter Anne-Marie Gauvin (b. 1945), and [Johnny Rosenberg?]
- While living on Barton Street, Betty became an active member of the United Jewish People's Order (UJPO) and a devoted member of the Toronto Jewish Folk Choir.
- Betty Rosenberg died in 1991.
