1871??? A tree on ancestry has her mother as Rachel Hart. Possibly wrong if census above is correct.

Looking at census believe her father was Nathaniel Nathan but looks like he was also k/a william but not too sure my Great grandmother was Mary Ann Cole- :-S

Possible relevant births which tie in with both 1861 & 1871 Census ?

Births Jun 1853 (>99%)
Nathan Leah Whitechapel 1c 317

Births Jun 1860 (>99%)
NATHAN Moses Whitechapel 1c 329

My Jewish fore bearers used 'official' names linked to occupations, and everyday ones which tended to show up on census. Try not to get blinkered on only one set of names. Like most minorities, they often adopted Anglicized names to fit in.

Jackie, i have a friend who thinks Leah married 3 times and the one that is not mentioned is Cook or Cooke and she is one of there decendents If this ties up with anything you know she would be very interested .Please let me know your comments. Thank You

Is this the one you think is her Jackie. There appear to be two in Spitalfields in 1861, this one with father Nathaniel and the one posted earlier with father Aaron. I'm not sure if either of them are correct but as Leah calls her first daughter Rachel I feel the one above is more likely her as her mother is Rachel.

Hi Jackie,
William & Leah's daughter Mary Ann, married my grandfather's brother William James Hickey 21/02/1892 St Thomas Stepney. what information are you looking for??

ladybird - hopefully Jackie will spot your reply when she next logs on, but in case she doesn't, try sending her a PM by clicking on her name.

As long as she hasn't changed her email address in the last few months and is still able to read and reply, she will be notified that there is a message waiting for her.

Who are you board police???

Jackie has only 2 posts to her name, suggesting that she does not visit the boards regularly. Hopefully in the last month, you have been able to help each other off board.

The suggestion/advice to send her a PM was given in good faith, not to cause problems or distress. If you found it offensive, then I apologise. Life's too short etc ;-)

Ladybird, that's rather a rude comment for someone trying to be helpful to you. You have 85 posts to your name so surely you know by now how the boards work? Maybe not!


The advice DET has given is pertinent and useful.


DET, I really don't know why you are apologising ! :-D


Oh, by the way Ladybird, neither DET nor I are what you call 'board police' - we're simply ordinary members who use this site daily and have a very good working knowledge of the Community Boards.
