Born in Grayeve (Polish: Grajewo), Sender Jarmulowsky was orphaned and raised by the rabbi of Werblow. After finishing his studies at the Volozhin yeshiva, he married and moved to Hamburg, where he started a business helping Jews emigrate to America. In 1873, Jarmulowsky himself moved to New York and established the Jarmulowsky Bank, which was open on Sundays. He was a founding member of the Eldridge Street Synagogue, Park East Synagogue (then Zichron Ephraim), and the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America. His towering Beaux-Arts bank branch was located at 54–58 Canal Street on New York’s Lower East Side.
