Hi Sandie,

Thanks so much for the information. Could i ask how you looked at the Synagogue records.

my husband has jewish ancestors and so I decided to obtain what books of records I could.....as he had both Ashkenazi and sephardic jews I have Great synagogue and Bevis Marks......
I dont have burial for Great Synagogue waiting for them to be transcribed, however not everyone is in these records and still havent found all ours but helps a bit.

Of course I cannot swear this is correct Isaac , just hope

Hi Mabel,

Thanks for this information, don't know why i haven't been able to find this myself (i have an account with find my past). I think there is a good chance this is the Isaac i am looking for as it seems to tie in with other info i have been given. If so he "travelled" to Birmingham, married, my gt/grandad and nana were born there. They then all moved to Manchester and this is where all my immediate family are. I only found out about my Jewish ancestry last year and i have found it fascinating. Thanks for your help. :) :)
