    1. Re: [BRITISH-JEWRY] EMANUEL FAMILY OF LONDON
    2. Keira Lockyer
    3. Am trying to help a young researcher. Does anyone have the following family on a family tree? Abraham EMANUEL [Abraham {Desc from a Privd Member) ben Menachem Menke] born 30 January 1814 London, died 1907 Melbourne, possibly a music professor, and wife Elizabeth ABRAHAM [Mata bat Moshe] who married at the Great Synagogue London in May 1836. They may have had two children in England: Abraham and Julia. They went to Australia where they had four known children: Elizabeth born 1842, Isabella (born 1843 who married David Moses DAVIS born in Poland - the researcher is from this branch) and Caroline (1849-1916 who married Emanuel MENDELSSOHN in Melbourne in 1874) and possibly a son Benjamin. According to a well known site, Abraham EMANUEL appears to have been the son of Emanuel EMANUEL, c1780-1856 diamond merchant and possibly Julia Rebecca MYERS who was the wife in the 1841 and 1851 Census lists. Children from these lists included Isabella, Edward, Janette and Louis. Another possible son is Jacob. Keira Lockyer Cold and wet Victoria, Australia.
