Debbie Next time you are trying to find a book title try looking at www.copac.ac.uk - this is a combined catalogue of academic libraries, including British Library. It tells you in which of the libraries the title is held. I suppose you sometimes leave your wet and windy island? ;) There seem to be two likely authors: Records of the Western Synagogue, 1761-1932. [With], The Western synagogue : some materials for its history / Matthias Levy. 1932. Records of the Western Synagogue 1761-1932 / by Cecil Roth. 1932. Actually I wonder if this indicates two authors working on the same book............ If you put Western Synagogue into the COPAC search box you'll find a whole lot more books about it. Sometimes I do this and then use the bibliographic details to search the second hand book market on the web. I've been to the Brompton Cemetery a couple of times - in Fulham. I could be entirely wrong but I thought this was the Western Synagogue Cemetery. Raymond Montanjees of JGSGB is the expert. Best wishes Hazel Hazel Dakers, London UK www.hazeldakers.co.uk <http://www.hazeldakers.co.uk/> Researching: NORDEN (London & South Africa); HEIMANN (Luegde, Germany and South Africa); GOLD (Zgierz and Lodz, Poland), BIRNBAUM (Zgierz and Lodz, Poland) I do believe there is a book which records the BMD of the Western Synagogue, it may be called Records of the Western Synagogue 1761 - 1932, but I don't know if that has burials and early marriages in it etc. Was a little confused when looking it up on google as one site says it is A history of the synagogue, including an inventory of vital records but no actual records or abstracts.
