Materials Specific Details

This collection was compiled by Natalie Witt Morrison, one of three daughters of Eli and Goldie Witt. They owned Witt's Kosher Meats on Monroe Ave in North Park from 1948 to 1987, for many years the only kosher meat market in San Diego. Just after World War II, the Witts owned a ranch in Rose Canyon where they started to raise their family. Martin Morrison, husband of Natalie opened the Kosher Konnection on El Cajon Blvd. in 1987. The other daughters are Cynthia Harvey and Francine Smith. The materials in this collection were donated to the Jewish Historical Society of San Diego by Natalie Witt Morrison in 2006. The contents of the collection consist of photographs, newspaper articles and digital images. An audio recording from a talk about their parents, given by the three Witt daughters at a JHSSD meeting in 2005 is in the JHSSD Oral History Collection.
