 Estonia and Latvia : Estonians in Latvia
Springing from the Estonian Temperance Society that was established in 1900 by the lawyer Jüri Jaakson and the temperance activist Karl Karp, the Riga Estonian Educational and Relief Society was founded in 1908, out of which came its present day legal successor, the Latvian Estonian Society.
Jüri Jaakson was elected as the Relief Socitey’s first chairman, later becoming the Head of State of the Estonian Republic and the long-serving president of the Bank of Estonia.
The activity and wealth of the Riga Estonians of those days is evidenced by the fact that in 1913 the society's 6-storey house at 62 Nometņu Street in the Āgenskalns (Hagensberg) quarter was built from contributions and loans, and that the society’s membership numbered approximately 540 persons at its height.
