The Jewish cattle farmer Simon Aron (1839-1926) worked for 43 years as an elected honorary overseer of the poor and district leader for the town of Soltau. He was also a co-founder of the Soltau Liedertafel in 1887. He bequeathed his estate to the town for the preservation and maintenance of the Jewish cemetery on Böningweg. This was significant, as cemeteries belonging to Jewish communities were historically often endangered. In 1936, the funds left behind, which were to be used for specific purposes, were confiscated by the then mayor Willy Klapproth.
