Hi Brian

So your in Canada? Nice to know the Muscovitz Empire is spread far and wide. Im the great great grandson of Morris Muscovitz.  The tree we have been working on is http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/h/o/p/Patricia-A-Hopps/WEBSITE-0001/UHP-0013.html

I would love to have a look at your family tree. Ill send you an email address to your PM. We have gotten as far back as Alexander Muscovitz but would love to know if you have anything on him or before him.

I'm pretty sure I'm the great-granddaughter of Golda. She has been listed in what little family tree info I have as "Sarah (Morris) Singleton" but all of the other information that I have seems to match Golda's. Justin, your guess that she went by Sarah Morris seems to have been correct. However, Muscovitz is listed as mother's maiden name on my grandmother's birth listing on the http://www.freebmd.org.uk/, which is how I found all of you. PearlSing and Abi, I would love to share info with you. Shauno & Brian, nice to meet you :)

My line of the family moved to Canada in the 50s, and my parents moved to the States in the 70s.

How wonderful to find your posts !!
I have been researching the family tree for a friend, who is the son of Sarah (Morris) Model, and g/son of Emanuel Morris & Mary Louis Benjamin - and I had hit a brick wall with Emanuel's ancestors.
Could have saved myself so much time and fruitless searches if I'd only thought to type "Muscovitz" into the Rootschat search box ages ago !!
Thank you so much, Pearlsing et al !! and JustinL in particular for making the Morrie-to-Emanuel link. Apparently he was also called Manny by his friends.

Attached is the 1901 UK naturalisation doc for Morris - his parents were Elijah and Leah Moszkowicz - and his 8 children are listed.

I have just realised that the 8 children listed as living with Morris in the 1901 UK naturalisation document aren't his children. So whose children were they ? or is this a different Morris Muscovitz ?

How disappointing. It is a different Morris - see attached 1901 census.

If Sarah was also called Cissie, and she had three sons, Douglas, David, and a third one whose name I've forgotten, this is the right Muscovitz. Cissie's married name was Modell.
