Researching a beautiful london Actress... and failing

Great find in gallica!

Thanks, there may well be many more references to Julia there, I was narrowing the search to their marriage year. I think this may be the church

I agree with you about what you said concerning antisemitism .

All I said was : in the twenties in France and England jews had the right to vote, and I thought you suggested they had not. And I still believe that guessing the motivations of a living person's grand-mother could hurt her ( particularly if you do not guess correctly).

Have a good day.

No, I didn't mention anything about voting (not sure anyone else did), only reference to electoral rolls that I can see. I really don't think, given the events of the 20th century, that anyone now would not understand why Jewish people sometimes hid their origins.

Hi

Came across this thread as happened on the mystery Julia James via the de László archives.

I am not sure whether there has been some mixing up of families with the same name? It can be very common and confusing if you are certain you have the right person.

To start at the beginning. This JJ was supposedly born in London in 1890, right? That year tallying with her supposed death age.

There is only one Julia James born in London -  on 2 Jan 1890 at 62 Marchmont Street, Bloomsbury. Father is Thomas Joseph James, a bookmaker. Mother is Mary James née Stevens.

Thoughts?

Re last post.

Red Herring!   

That Julia James born in Jan 1890, died the same year.

Back to the drawing-board
