That's very interesting as they didn't start recording Jewish births until 1764 it says here.. and she was born in 1762.. Already a help! Thanks again..

This is the mothers line so until I get back to when they originally came over I'm afraid surnames are no use. Yes I've had my DNA tested..

I have maternal sephardi ancestry.. had my DNA tested and the furthest we can go back on that line is to a Sarah Tatt born 1762 in Sturmer, Suffolk according to her place of birth on Marriage certificate.. but we cannot find a baptism in Sturmer for a Sarah Tatt anywhere.. There are a few others called Sarah born in 1762.. and she married a Samuel Coote.. it is suggested on a later correction that Tatt was a previous marriage name so we are not sure.. Thank you for all the online links.. If there is anyway you can look at your sephardi records to help it would be really appreciated. So far I have this one mutation that is causing me to have no matches on my DNA site.. No exact matches in 10 years.. Aside from this I match all sephardi.

Hope maybe someone can help..

Hi, She had this to say. She has all her marbles but she can only remember bits.
She went to Bath St school at age 3 in 1917 and she says it had been opened a long time before that.
She said the school had the boys at the back and the girls at the front.. so they did not mix all the time.
She remembers a caretaker called Mr Cook who was there some years and lived in a house on the premises.

The girls took lessons such as: Laundry/Cooking/Ironing...  :o

One of her Aunts whose maiden name was Robinson lived in the Guiness Buildings in Lever Street as my nan used to visit her but she cannot remember her surname. She called her Aunt LIzzie Robinson.. and she was married with 2 kids..

A nice little insight :)
