- FOX (Fuchs), JACOB SAMUEL (1868–1938),
journalist and educator. Born in Bialystok, Russia, he obtained his
rabbinical diploma at the Berlin Rabbinical Seminary and pursued his
secular studies at Berlin and Berne. Turning to journalism, he edited
Ha-Maggid he-Ḥadash (1891–98) and (together with A. Guenzig)
Ha-Eshkol (1898–1912). A research trip prompted his final
move to England in 1902, after which Fox decided to foster Jewish
education in Liverpool by founding a Hebrew higher grade school. He
supported the establishment of the British Mizrachi and became principal
of Aria College in Brighton. He was author of a monograph on Judah
Ibn Bal'am\>\> . His son, ISAAC SOLOMON FOX (1896–1971),
practiced as a physician, was mayor of Chester (1932–33) and chairman of
the British Zionist Federation (1955–56).
