I think the Jewish Hillcrest club was different from the one on Oxmoor Road. In Sheryl Summe's book, Homewood: The Life of a City, she has a brief write-up on pg. 101 about it and states, In 1922 "Hugo Marx, Leo Kayser, and G. Goldman led a purchase of 92 acres on Oxmoor Road for $40,000" and established the Hillcrest Country Club, which included a 9-hole golf course. The site later became the Zamora Shrine Temple and today is the Palisades Shopping Center. She references an earlier article in her footnotes, as well.

- I don't have a verification for the 1883 date from the second reference, but it's not unlikely that an earlier club petered out in one of the financial crises of the turn of the century and was re-incorporated in 1922. I'll see if one of the books on my shelf can shed some light. --Dystopos (talk) 11:12, 22 December 2018 (PST)
