Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SAR-SCY
SASSOON, SIR ALBERT ABDULLAH DAVID, BART . (1818-1896), British Indian philanthropist and merchant, was born at Bagdad on the 25th of July 1818, a member of a Jewish family settled there since the beginning of the 16th
century
 , and previously in Spain. His father, a leading Bagdad merchant, was driven by repeated
Anti
 -Semitic outbreaks to remove from Bag-dad to
Bushire
 , Persia, and, in 1832, he settled in Bombay where he founded a large banking and mercantile business. Albert .
Sassoon
  was educated in India, and on the death of his father became head of the firm. He was a
great
  benefactor to the city of Bombay, among his gifts being the
Sassoon
 
dock
 , completed in 1875, and a handsome proportion of the cost of the new
Elphinstone
  High School. In 1867 he was made a C.S.I., and in 1872 a Knight of the Bath. In 1873 he visited England and received the freedom of the city of London. Shortly afterwards he settled in England, and was made a
baronet
  in 1890. He died at
Brighton
  on the 24th of October 1896.
