Seaching for Louis Leader

[Harinz]

Thank you so much... a lot of information to process . I have Louis Leader (jr) 1814-1997 being the son of Rachel Leader nee: Lipman. But perhaps he also had a sister named Rachel (Landsman), the birth-date fits as she is a couple of years older than Louis. also your theory about why they would travel as a group to SA makes sense (will have to try and confirm). Still no trace of Leila Leader though, I've been searching grave and death notices for the Manchester area and can find no trace. Perhaps she is still alive and the reports of her passing were unfounded. The hunt goes on... really appreciate the effort you have gone too to help suzard.

Hari.

I can't find any further information on  Rachel Landsman or her children Marlene and Gloria J

Hi again from what I can see possibly Harry Landsman was born 25th December 1906 and Rachel Landsman b 5th July 1913 marries a Michael Bloom September qtr 1950 Leeds 2c 1015?

Ive just found a link to both sisters (Gloria Black & Marlene Livingston) but they give the mother as Rachel Bloom (born Leader), possible she remarried after death of first husband. But gives grandfathers name as Abraham Leader... so maybe they are not connected, directly at least.

Wait so I think Rachel Leader (Lipman) has a sister Fanny (Lipman) who it appears married a Abraham Leader so maybe its a case of two brothers marrying two sisters?? Confused much

Sorry keyboard86 I was replying as your message came in... interesting

Hi if you have input or wish to purchase credits for the 1939 census I think that you will find Abraham/Fanny/Louis were in Manchester?

Thanks for the advice... I'll do that but I'm try to zero in on Louis' daughter Leila... she is the direct link (half sister) that my aunt has been searching for. If I can find her, or her children, then hopefully all of the rest of the family line will fall into place. Its frustrating that apart from the SA passenger list I cannot seem to pick up her trail.
