She's not a direct ancestor,  her father is my ggfather. 

Who is your great-great-grandfather? What do you know about him so far? Is this a case where he has children by another marriage, and you're descended from that line? Which, if correct, would make Esther a half-relative (of sorts) to you?

Hillhurst yes you're correct. Julius had 2 children with his first wife , I'm a descendant of his first child.

I know very little about him, he escaped all Censuses and no death record. I think he went awol in France.  I fear the worst

Perhaps that fact should've been stated in your original post. Just to avoid all the confusion. Maybe your thread should actually be about Julius instead, as he's the "mystery".

Do you have Julius mentioned on any BMD certificates? If so, what are they? And can you list his occupation(s) and any addresses he was living at (as per the certs).

I think I have all the records available on ancestry.

 Last known address on his marriage certificate was 104 old Montague street, London

Sandra I believe Esther had a sister who also married in NY and mother's name again was fligel

Have you got a name ?

I see Esther listed in London, England, School Admissions and Discharges - Settles Street School - born 6 March 1897 - admitted 24 August 1903 - father Julius Greenland.

Also Mary (born 25/4/1894) and Emmanuel (born 20/8/1892) admitted 23/8/1899 - St Marys School. Tower Hamlets.

This reply mentions not just Esther but a few children
