Title: Myers/Isaacs
Post by: Dimond on Wednesday 08 February 12 00:40 GMT (UK)
Hi

Does anyone have any information re Eve Myers who married Lewis Isaacs. Eve was born around 1806 and died in Australia. Her 2 sons came out with her but do not know if she had any other children. Lewis did not appear to have come out to Australia, do not know if he died in London or stayed with other children. Would like to know who Eve's parents were and where she was born.

Thanks Diane

Thanks everyone this is great news. My great grandparents were Abraham Hyam Isaacs and Dinah Phillips. I knew that Moss was in business with a Cohen but thought it was a relative from his wife's side now I know it was his brother in law.

Karenlee thanks for the hebrew for Eve and Lewis but can you provide the English for Lewis's father

And does anyone have Eve's mothers name/surname

Also are any of you related to my family

Post by: deeiluka on Wednesday 08 February 12 09:27 GMT (UK)
No Diane.....we're just Rootschatters who like to help out.

Unfortunately Eve's mother wasn't named on her Death Certificate, which makes finding her mother's name in Australian records rather difficult seeing as she was most likely born in the UK.

Thanks again

If you feel like digging any further for me, Dinah Phillips parents were Louis Phillips and Esther Beck. I believe Esther's mother was Sarah Jacobs and I think her father was Henry Beck. Can anyone confirm this for me and possibly go further.

Again thanks for your work It has been greatly appreciated

Diane

The marriage of Dinah PHILLIPS says she was born in Hobart. There is also an earlier marriage for her to a Phillip Phillips in 1872 in Victoria.
Ref = 3461

Phillip Phillips born London died in 1877 aged 33.
Father = Moses PHILLIPS and Mother = Rosy WOOLFF
Ref = 5553

They had a child Phillip Louis PHILLIPS born 1877 in Melbourne.
Ref = 23583
He died aged 17 months in 1879.    :'(
Ref = 5418

So it seems Dinah was a widow when she married Abraham.

Post by: Dimond on Wednesday 08 February 12 10:02 GMT (UK)
Thanks Dee, you are right. I am so stoked I have been stuck on this for so long and now I have some sort of idea if the family. I ahve been able to go back on other sides of the family all in England to late 1600/early 1700's but the jewish side had me stumped.

I am also trying ti find Richard Robert Stewart who married Sophia Utting Sutch in Melbourne. Richard was married before and lost his wife and 2 children but don't know their names or what happened. Don't even know if it happened in England, on the way out or in Australia. I have a transcript of the marriage certificate for Richard and Sophia and have Richards father as Joseph and mother as Hannah but cannot read her surname. Believe he was born Norwich 1814. He was widowed 1845 and married Sophia 1854.

Hi Dianne,

Glad this information was helpful to you.  :D

Do you know what happened to Hannah Isaacs born c1829?

Is she the Rachael Isaacs who married Morris Cohen?

I see in the family notices on http://trove.nla.gov.au that she is named as
Raie Cohen.
I have tried to find a death for her but nothing found so far  :-\

Title: Re: Myers/Isaacs
Post by: Dimond on Wednesday 08 February 12 10:05 GMT (UK)
yes am aware of Dinah's first marriage and loss of her child who hung himself trying to get out of his cot. Very sad indeed. Actually read the inquest info on it.

Diane
Title: Re: Myers/Isaacs
Post by: deeiluka on Wednesday 08 February 12 10:07 GMT (UK)
Oh poor baby and poor Mum!   :'(   :'(

Dinah's death.....

Dinah ISAACS aged 39 died in 1895 in Carlton.
Father: given as Henry Lewis and mother as Esther BECK
Ref = 8596


This raises a question about her father's name. Do you have Dinah and Abraham's marriage certificate, Diane? If not, it may pay you to obtain the digital copy, as it should have lots of information on it. Ask if you are unsure how where/how to do so.

if you already have it, can you post any information from it on here to give us some pointers?

As for your latest question about Richard Robert Stewart, I think you'd be better to start a new thread for him, probably on the Australian Board. In fact, we probably should get a moderator to move this thread to the Australian Board too, where you may get more help.

Post by: deeiluka on Wednesday 08 February 12 10:16 GMT (UK)
I see Louis PHILLIPS and Esther BECK and three children including Dinah listed on the Tasmanian Family Links site. No parents named for Esther and no marriage there either. So maybe we need to look elsewhere.    :-\

It sounds like you have some documents already.


Dee   :)
Title: Re: Myers/Isaacs
Post by: Dimond on Wednesday 08 February 12 10:18 GMT (UK)
Dinah's father went by Louis Henry a bit like Abraham Hyam called himself Hyam. Louis was actually sent out as a convict to Tasmania, have traced his exploits. However would like anything on Esther's side

Diane

Is she the Rachael Isaacs who married Morris Cohen?
I see in the family notices on http://trove.nla.gov.au that she is named as
Raie Cohen.
I have tried to find a death for her but nothing found so far

My name is Colin Morris Nicoll.  I am curious in searching out some more information on my family. I have just started and came across this entry.  I don't know if anyone can shed any light on the information I have below:
Rachel Isaacs and Morris Cohen married in Ballarat, Victoria on the 7th of June 1868 at the residence of the bride, Barkley Street, Ballarat East.  They had 9 children.  The youngest child Annie Cohen, was born 22nd December 1888 27 Moor Street, South Fitzroy, Victoria. Annie Cohen married David Nicoll in Blenheim, NZ in 1925.  They had one son Morris Nicoll, born in Napier, NZ 1928.  Morris Nicoll is my father.  Annie Cohen died approx 1936.  I am trying to seek more information on Annie Cohen, her siblings, anything at all.  I am not sure when she left Australia to NZ. 
Thank you for your time in reading this!

Hello Colin.
Welcome to RootsChat.    :)

You mention that Rachel ISAACS and Morris COHEN had nine children, with Annie being the youngest.
Do you have the details of all the births? Their deaths or marriages? If not, we may be able to find some of them.
It seems that there was another child born after Annie.

In 1914 Beatrice and Ellis ABRAHAMS were living at 147 Pigdon St, North Carlton, Victoria. Ellis was a clerk.
They’re still in North Carlton in 1919, but at 704 Rathdown St.
1924 and 1931 sees them at 5 Beach Ave, Elsternwick South.
They’ve moved to 7 Beach St by 1936, and were there in 1937.
1942 sees only Beatrice listed and she stays there till 1954,

Her husband, Ellis ABRAHAMS died in 1941 in South Melbourne. His age was given as 72.
