Becca!

Levi Morgan born 8 October 1856 at Bramble Hill, Begelly.

btw, Phoebe Morris was born 15 Dec 1849 at Gilmaenllwyd (Llanboidy, Narberth).  Her Pa was then an Ag Lab, as he still was in 1861, albeit he's a Blacksmith on her marr cert to Levi.

Cheers!

Has anyone come across this name/family in their research?

He had a daughter, Rebecca, b. abt 1827, who married a William Flatan in Poplar in 1848.

Also appears to have a daughter called Julia/Judith, depending on which Census searched, born abt 1835 in Poplar.

Any info would be much appreciated.

TIA.

Thanks again, Jeannie!

That's a variation on an entry I found for 1861, which set me off on this trail.......!!

Then I found a Solomon Flatow in the Leeds and Bradford 1853 Directory, as a 'watch & jewellery dir.' with the Boar Lane address and also in 1827 as a China Merchant in Dock Street, Leith, Edinburgh, in the Post Office Annual Directory.

In the 1871 Census for the Joel family, there is actually a note saying that husband is a watch manufacturer employing 8 men & 4 boys and has gone to Leeds!!.......and I found him on Leeds Census in an hotel in Boar Lane!!

By 1881 Jane Joel is a widow and has a Benjamin Flatau, nephew born in Middx, staying with her .............and I suddenly twigged this week that he's one of mine!!  His Dad, Morris Flatau, was born c 1819 in either Prussia or Scotland, depending on which Census, and Morris is my 3 x Gt Grandfather!  Today I got Leon Joel's Marriage Cert and Jane was down as Flatom and her Pa is....Solomon Flatow, a General Dealer!!

Jane is born in Edinburgh around the time Solomon is there but I have found no trace of the family on Scotlands People.

All my Flataus are London-based and I have Morris's 1842 Marriage Cert, which gives his father as Solomon Flatau.

I am desperately trying to link in to Solomon Flatow.  If Jane and Morris are siblings, I'm there!!  The search continues...........!!

I had no idea that that area of Coventry was full of jewellers!

As you are a retired Watchmaker and Jeweller from Leeds, you obviously know a lot about them!

Thank you again for all the trouble you have gone to in trying to dig out my man!!

Kind regards.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Leeds - 1841 and 1851 Census - Solomon Flatow
« on: Wednesday 21 September 05 13:44 BST (UK)  »
Further to previous post, Solomon Flatow is known to deal in watches and jewellery at 25 Boar Lane in 1853.  I believe his home address was 12 Guildford Street, Butt's Court.

Jeannie has found him on the 1851 Census index and suggests I give the references, in case some kind person could look them up.

They are as follows:-

Soloman Flatow age 58 born Prussia ref 2319/299
Maria Flatow age 50 born Prussia ref 2319/299
Manesseh Flatow age 32 born Prussia ref 2319/299

and Henry Flatow age 20 born Nottingham ref 2320/224

Can anyone help?  Pretty please!!

TIA

Many thanks!  Sounds like my man!  Almost certain he's born in Prussia.........

I'm getting quite excited about nailing him down - he's been a brick wall for some years!
