Title: COMPLETED-1901 Census lookup- Steel Family
Post by: Jeffers-HR on Friday 20 April 07 20:20 BST (UK)
Can anyone please help me trace the Steel Family Jacob and Annie, both aged about 23 at the 1901 Census? They were living in London probably in the East End, Whitechapel, Spitalfields, etc.

Many thanks.

P.S.  Annie was born Annie Abrahams in Spitalfields Apr-Jun 1878 and Jacob Russia/Poland

I see Jacob and Annie were married in 1900. Would they have had any children by 1901 census and also what was Jacobs occupation?

Have you got the marriage cert?

They were married 11 March 1900, so if any child would be aged 0. Yes I have marriage certificate. Jacob's occupation on marriage cert looks like Hair something indecipherable!! They were married from 69 Hanbury Street E1.  Annie was born Spitalfields, Jacob in Russia Poland.

Failing finding them in 1901, have you got either of them in previous censuses. Was Jacobs father called Morris, if so I think I have found the family in 1891. If you haven't details, I will post them. Let me know.

Shanko found this for me on another request which happens to include Anne Steel (nee Abrahams)

Civil Parish - Spitalfields
Ecc Parish - Christchurch
Registration District - Whitechapel
Sub-Registration District - Spitalfields

73 Hanbury Street

Jacob ABRAHAMS Head Married 60 Tailor   Germany
Rachel ABRAHAMS Wife Married 58             Germany
Joseph ABRAHAMS Son Single 20 Tailor   England
Anne ABRAHAMS Daughter Married 23 Cigar Maker England

This is the definitive Anne Steel but where oh where is Jacob?  He isn't included in the BMD Death Index for 1900-1901.

I'm stumped, can find no sign of Jacob in 1901. Its a pity that the 1911 census isn't available yet.

Did they have any children at all or don't you know?


Maybe someone else may have better luck in finding him.
