Thank you very much, to all who have responded to my ' cri de coeur '.... I think from your findings Angela , I must assume that though he may have been born at Windsor, his family lived elsewhere....now all I have to do is to track all the James Cohen's worldwide! Something that you wrote Anne, regarding Rosetta Isaacs.got me thinking..... James named his daughter Rosina & Rosina married my GG'father Gregory Henry David Isaacs....Rosetta was the daughter of Henry Isaacs of Oxford who had links with the Ansells of the Ipswich area ....as did *my* Isaacs . Rosina married GHD [ above] aged 14 , following her father' s death 2 yrs earlier at which time she had become an orphan....links between the families would make this more understandable I feel As I said ' it has got me thinking' & I will explore this further- thankyou... BTW does anyone know what a' brush maker' is exactly....would there be any associated records anywhere??? Once again thankyou to all , Best wishes Catherine

Hi Catherine, I was very interested in your connection to the Isaacs family and your mention of the Ansells. My son-in-law is Benjamin Ansell, a direct descendant of the Ansell family of Leeds. Could you please tell me how Gregory Isaacs is connected to Henry Isaacs of Oxford? I believe that Rosetta Isaacs was a granddaughter of Eve Raphael and I have been trying to find more information about this family.
