The two boys who were born in Brighton - Isaac is listed under 'Rothstein', 'Abraham' could be the "Albert Rothstein" also registered in Bristol? Year is right.

Other than that, I also am having trouble finding them. Perhaps registered under Ada's maiden name? (Whatever that was!)

I know........I tried all the Ro* possibles in Bristol and the Isaacs and the Abrahams......did find a name that stuck out though....Abraham Kujawski which if I'm not mistaken is Polish??? Didn't sound like a local name and is totally irrelevant to this whole thing  ;D Anyway...... :D

Well we know they were Rottsteins from 1891 to 1901  ::)

If it was me I'd order the birth certificate for Joseph Rottstein just for the heck of it  :-\

I have been trying to decifer the 1901 census showing Reubens Brother in law William Mooe's real name.  Looking at the cert it lppks to me more like the name began with a J.  If I can find his real name then I should be able to get Ada & his parents.

Please have a look see what you think the surname is.

I think it's Moor....The first letter looks the same as other M's on the page. If you look farther down at the bottom there is someone who is a match box maker and the M is the same  :-\

I think you are right but I have trawled familysearch and ancestry  for all William Moo* born Limehouse london and can only find him listed on the 1901 census age 21.

Ada however is listed as being  38 in 1901 born Limehouse but 25 in 1891 born Hackney so date of birth would be anywhere between 1860-1870 but I never been that good at maths!

Well Moor does appear to be a valid surname.

I don't know what registration district Limehouse falls under during that period ???

There are these two Williams on FreeBMD....

William Cecil Moor Sep 1880 Kensington 1a 85

William Alfred Moor Sep 1879 Shoreditch 1c 141

I tried looking for any William born around 1880 but so far no luck  :( Maybe it's his second name  :-\

I had that happen to me yesterday. Spent all day looking for a Richard but he used his second name Ernest....... :o
