D.E. Cohen: Geschiedenis van de familie Cohen:
Being an important tobacco merchant Jacob was allowed to take residence in Arnhem in 1718,. Being Jewish he had to pay a large sum of money as security, and wasn't granted poorterschap then (full civil rights). Later he also was the lease-holde r of the Bank van Lening (municipal pawnshop). He was one of the founders of the Ashkenazi community in Arnhem, services were held in his house, for some time in another building he rented, and after his death in the house of his son Salomon.

Uit de inleiding van archieftoegang 2103 Nederlands-Israèelitisch Kerkgenootschap, gemeente Arnhem , Gelders Archief: De geschiedenis van de huidige joodse Gemeente nam een aanvang bij het begin van de 18de eeuw, toen enkele tabaksfabrikante n en -handelaren zich met instemming van het stadsbestuur te Arnhem vestigden. Het betrof Jacob Ezechiels Cohen, uit een bekende Amersfoortse familie van Joodse kooplieden, en de broers Samuel en Izaak Palache alias van der Zee. Deze laatste twe e kregen in 1705 toestemming van het stadsbestuur een tabaksspinnerij op te richten, mits daar ook christenen werkzaam mochten zijn. In 1709 verwierven zij twee tegenover elkaar gelegen huizen in de Molenstraat ; in een ervan werd een synagoge ing ericht, waar diensten werden gehouden volgens de Portugese rite. Na het verdwijnen van de familie Palache alias Van der Zee werden de diensten gehouden in de huizen van achtereenvolgens Jacob Ezechiels Cohen en diens zoon Salomon. Ook werden er we l huizen gehuurd en tot synagoge ingericht. Na de begintijd onder Palache alias Van der Zee werden de diensten gehouden volgens de Asjkenazische rite.

About the surname Lapidoth: In civil documents, notarial acts etc he is always named Benjamin Abrahams Junior, even where family members were named Lapidoth. The only time I saw him named as Lapidoth was after his death, in the document of 1802/0 3 concerning the inheritance of his sister Barendina Lapidoth. In this document all his siblings and half-siblings were named Lapidoth, including those that were always known as Abraham(s).
Married 1746 Arnhem?, On 26 Sep 1746, before Notary Daniel vd Brink in Amsterdam: Benjamin Abrahams Junior, being married to Malka Cohen, daughter of Jacob Ezechiel Cohen and the late Lea Abrahams, declares that they have no more claims to her mothers inheritance. Th e payment would have been part of the marriage settlement, and this quittance would be drawn up soon after the marriage and the transfer of the money.
No registration of the marriage in Amsterdam. to:
Malka Reijna Jacob Cohen, birth after 1721 Arnhem, died 16 Sep 1759 Amsterdam, Muiderberg cemetery: 24 Elul 5519 - wife of Wolf Chelawno. Impost on burials: 19 Sep the wife of Benjamin Abraham Junior, 3 gld., daughter of Jacob Ezechiel Cohen and Lea Abrahams
Receiving her share in her mothers inheritance when she married means she was a minor at that time: younger than 25 and born after 1721. Otherwise she would have received her share when reaching the age of 25.
