Aaron Lopez (1731-1782)
Duarte (Aaron) Lopez was born in Portugal in 1731 to well-to-do parents who were part of the Converso community. Raised to practice Judaism only in secret, while maintaining outward conformity with Catholicism to all appearances, Lopez reached maturity, married and had a baby daughter before deciding to leave Portugal for a new, openly Jewish life in British North America, where he joined his older brother Moses. Moses Lopez, who had himself left Portugal in his teens, had come of age in New York City before establishing himself in Newport, Rhode Island, in the early 1740s.
The passage of Aaron Lopez to British America was unique in its directness. Most of the escaping Portuguese conversos made their way first to London, where they were supported for a brief period by Congregation Shaar HaShamaaim (also known as the Spanish and Portuguese Jews Synagogue) at Bevis Marks in return for their open redemption as Jews.
Following his arrival in Newport, Duarte quickly redeemed himself and his family as Jews, assuming the name of Aaron, and with the help of his brother Moses set himself up in business. One of his earliest ventures involved participation in the consortium established by a number of Newport merchants for the manufacture of spermaceti candles. By 1760, his efforts to engage in the wholesale commodities trade had also proved successful. His business activities grew widely over the next 15 years to include whaling and a few ventures in the slave trade, as well as the export of Newport manufactures such as furniture, axes, plank and board, flour, barrel staves and salt fish.
In 1761 Lopez, along with fellow Jew Isaac Elizer, sought naturalization in Rhode Island under the Act of 13 George II, ch. 7, which authorized the naturalization of Jews as well as dissenting Protestant groups as citizens of the crown within the North American colonies after seven years' residence. However, the two were refused by the colony's courts as well as by the legislature. Lopez, after seeking the advice of renowned Boston lawyer Samuel Fitch, set up residence in Swansey, Massachusetts, and was finally naturalized at Taunton in October 1762. Elizer was naturalized in New York a year later.
In Newport, Aaron began to establish ties with gentiles of his station, including among them Ezra Stiles, the Congregational minister of the town. Stiles, who had a great scholarly interest in Jewish scripture, came to know members of Newport's Jewish community during his residence in Newport. Following the death of his wife Abigail in 1762, Aaron also established broader ties within Newport's Jewish community by re-marrying the daughter of his business partner, Jacob Rodriguez Rivera.
With the outbreak of the Revolutionary War in 1776, Lopez began to suffer a dramatic downturn in his business, along with most colonial merchants. As the British took Savannah in 1778, Lopez evacuated his family to Leicester, Massachusetts, where he set up a retail shop and a modest commodities trade via overland routes through Salem, Boston and Providence. Over the course of the next four years, he became a key supplier to the American forces, providing such necessities as flour and leather breeches.
In 1782, while on the way to Newport with his family, Aaron Lopez accidentally drowned in Scott's pond in Smithfield, Rhode Island, while watering his horse. He left behind his grieving wife Sarah, devoted father-in-law and business partner Jacob Rodriguez Rivera, and 15 surviving children. Ezra Stiles, now President of Yale University, composed the following epitaph for him:
- "He was a merchant of eminence,
- of polite and amiable manners.
- Hospitality, liberality, and benevolence
- were his true characteristics.
- An ornament and valuable pillar to
- the Jewish society, of which he was a
- member. His knowledge in commerce
- was unbounded and his integrity irreproachable;
- thus he lived and died, much
- regretted, esteemed and loved by all."

Scope and Content Note
The Papers of Aaron Lopez encompass the breadth of his mercantile activities in Rhode Island and throughout New England during the period preceding the Revolutionary War. The collection comprises a large proportion of the extant Lopez papers, second only to that housed by the Newport Historical Society in Newport. The Aaron Lopez collection comprises accounts and correspondence with local merchants in Newport as well as important mercantile firms and families located elsewhere in British North America and abroad; local artisans, traders, and workmen; and Newport mariners such as Nathaniel Hathaway, Benjamin Allen, Jeremiah Osborne, John Peters, Benjamin Wright and others. The correspondence includes the important merchants Henry Lloyd of Boston, Henry Cruger of Bristol, George Hayley of London, William Stead of Sheffield and New Bedford whaler Joseph Rotch. In short, the Lopez papers reflect the diversity or communal life, social interaction and mercantile activity both within the Jewish community and throughout British North America prior to 1783.
The collection is valuable to researchers interested in general mercantile activities in colonial America, in 18th century whaling activities, in colonial shipping practices, in the marketing of English textiles, and in colonial artisan and manufacturing activities. The collection contains shipping records, mercantile accounts, notations, correspondence and inventories of estates for several of the children of Aaron Lopez. The vast majority of the items are in English, although some correspondents wrote to Lopez in Portuguese, Spanish and French. Additionally, only a few items contain notations in Hebrew or Yiddish (generally not made by Lopez).
Return to the Top of PageArrangement
Researchers should note that the collection has recently been reorganized. Previously, the Lopez papers were kept in strict chronological order. In order to restore, to the extent possible, the original order in which the records were kept by their creator, the collection is now divided into four series.
We believe that this new organizational scheme restores the context within which these records were originally created and used, and therefore will facilitate use of the collection by researchers.
The four series of the Lopez Collection are:
- Series I: Shipping Records, undated, 1752-1794
- Series II: Mercantile Accounts, undated, 1753-1794
- Series III: Correspondence, various, 1752-1783, 1953
- Series IV: Photostats from other Repositories (Naturalization Papers and Shipping Records and Manifests) and Estate Inventories for Joshua Lopez and Juliet Lopez Levy, 1762-1764, 1766, 1771, 1772, 1846, 1852.
- Separated Oversized Material, 1760-1787

Container List
The following section contains a detailed listing of the materials in the collection.
Series I: Shipping Records, undated, 1752-1794. |
|||
| The predominant language of the series is English. | |||
| Boxes 1-5. | |||
Arrangement:From notations found within the collection in the hand of Aaron Lopez, it was evident that he kept together all of the receipts for each voyage of a particular vessel, and the intention has been to recreate that scheme of arrangement. Thus, the records within this series are grouped by ship and by captain rather than chronologically; we believe that this arrangement most closely corresponds to the manner in which Lopez himself kept his shipping records. Due to the large number of different ships with similar names, the documents have been arranged first by type of ship (brigantine, schooner, ship, sloop, snow), and then alphabetically by name. Thus, records for the Brigantine Charlotte have been filed separately from those of the Sloop Charlotte and the Schooner Charlotte. In some cases, such as those of the Brigantine Charlotte and the Sloop Industry, there were so many records for the ship that it became necessary to create separate folders for each captain who served as the ship's master. Box 5, Folder 31 has miscellaneous records regarding various ships and voyages from 1752-1794. |

| Boxes 6-13. | |||
Arrangement:Primarily arranged by name of port with mercantile accounts in alphabetical order by merchant. Rhode Island ports are: Newport (Boxes 6-9), East Greenwich, Kingston, Providence and Warren (Box 10, Folders 30-44). Massachusetts ports are: Boston, Dartmouth, New Bedford, Salem, Swansey and Worcester (Box 10, Folders 1-29). Box 11 contains other American ports including: New York, Philadelphia and Poughkeepsie; and Foreign ports including: Amsterdam, Bristol, Charles Town, Curaçao, Halifax, London, Madeira, St. Eustace, St. Nicholas Mole and Sheffield (all filed in alphabetical order). Boxes 12 and 13 contain records of accounts rendered and settled, orders, and invoices, and are grouped together by type of accounting record in chronological order. |
|||
Scope and Content:The series contains accounts transmitted by Lopez or his correspondent for services performed, goods shipped and sold, bills of exchange, labor, etc., which are not associated with any one ship or voyage. Many of the individuals with whom Lopez traded were associated with the shipping trades, and are also well represented in Series I as well as in this series. Series II also includes mercantile records of Joseph Lopez, who carried on his father's trading activities after Aaron's death in 1782. |
