Title: 1901 Census London
Post by: steve62 on Saturday 13 December 25 14:15 GMT (UK)
Hi Folks,
Leaving apart prevous postings on this family I have one new question only.

David Goldstein b. 1872 Russia  d. 1910 Liverpool &  Leah Goldstein (neč Labisky) 1874 Russia d. 1946 Manchester
children:  Gertrude b. 1895 (+/- 2 years)  b. St. George in the  East.
                Lazarus  b. 1898  Whitechapel

The question is why can I not find them in 1901 Census in London or elsewhere.

Have all relevant info.

Thank you
Steve62

Sandra beat me to it! However no children are with this couple - but it's a coincidence if it isn't David and his wife Leah.

Thank you ladies,
This couple lived in Cheetham Hill and had grocery shop.  A friend in Holland checked this out and never found any children born to this couple.
In 1911 mine were in Liverpool with the children.  David died in 1910.

Thank you for your input

Just curious, in 1911 census Leah records 2 children born, 2 still alive, 1 died ?

Did they have a daughter Fanny Goldstein born 1896 with mmn Lazinsky

Right Ladies,
Thank you for the input

 CaroleW:
Wrote wrong birth year.  You are right.  His grave in Liverpool has no headstone.  Gertrude use to go now and again to the cemetery and thats how I know he is the father( family talk)

Softly Softly:
Thank you that could be right.

I think the problem with the surname is how someone transcribed the written word.  Also if spoken the transcriber may have written the name how they thought it should be spelt.  I say this as on my fathers' side "Boler" over the years  back was written "Boaler",  "Bowler",  "Boler".  In one case of census;  Parents down as Bowler and children as Boaler and the children used Boaler as their surname thereafter.

I am grateful for your inputs and will soldier on and one day resolve the mystery

Double check the findings of your friend.

As they were in Liverpool 1911 they may have checked that area only.

Very elusive, I think you are right that the name was either mis-recorded or mis-transcribed.
What was David's profession ? It would have been given on his death certificate.
With an occupation, it would be easier to do a blanket search.
I was amazed at the amount of returns for "Lazarus"...and how many spelling variations!
Hope one day it all clicks into place...
