I have hit the brick wall and cant get over it!! I have the marriage certificate of Rebecca Winslow (aka Rebekah) she married John Jacobs Jul 2nd 1883 at Kennington London. She gave her home address as 14 Artillery Passage London (owned by Philip Jacobs) John's address was 2 Raymore Place, Heneage Street London. Her father was a William Winslow ( I have found him) and John's father was a Hyman Jacobs (I have found him) But the problem I have is in the childrens christening etc. I have got them in the 1891 (14 Thorparch Road, Battersea) and 1901 Census 87 Thorparch Road Battersea). The Children are, Hyman b1884, Amelia b 1885, Katherine/a E. b1887, Edward 1891, John 1904, Florence H. 1893 (mother Olivia Winslow), Rose, L 1896 & Adelaide 1900. I have already had a problem with Florence Henrietta Jacobs and finally found her birth but with mother's name Olivia Winslow & father's name John Jacobs. I have found several births but with either mother's name as Olivia/Lydia/Rebekah/Rebecca or father's name John/Jacob I am hoping that by locating the birth of the children I might be able to find the mother's birth certficate. Estimating from Census: born 1862/1864 London City or Bishopsgate. Is there anyone who could help? I have been trying to work this out for ny on 8 years and I am feeling absolutely cheesed off! Regards Pauline

The original post says she was Florence Henrietta.
These names have a Jewish feel to me - I wonder whether "Rebecca" was a name assumed by John Jacobs' wife upon marriage in place of a non-Jewish forename.

Not exactly what you are looking for - but I feel this family must fit in somewhere. Father is William (what is Rebecca/Olivia's dad's occ on marriage cert) and with child Adelaide, same as one of R/O's children ....

I have the information on William Winslow of long Alley, that is her father. It is the problem trying to locate Rebecca (Rebekah) Jacobs nee Winslow. Yes the Jacobs line is Jewish from Poland found the Father Hyman at Hutchison Avenue, Shoreditch. Its been Rebecca thats the problem the only address I have is off the 1891 and 1901 Census. John's occupation Carman/Cab driver. But on marriage cert he is a Cordial makers Assistant, as with Rebecca on one census the birthplace is Bishopsgate (which would fall in with the rest of the family info) but on another 1901 its London City. Yes, all the names of the children come off the census. What I am trying to achieve is the names of the children and their date of birth and/or baptism, then the mother's birth certificate. I know that there was another Rebecca Jacobs which was John Jacobs's sister. I also have problem with John and locating his birth, yet again he seems to alter his name. Really lost and dont know which way to go. John's father was Hyman Jacobs and his mother Henrietta friedman. Rebecca (John's wife) father William Winslow mother Elizabeth Hunt. As Rebecca was lodging at 14 Artillery Passage, and that was owned by Philip Jacobs, I thought there might be a connection there? This family has been an absolute nightmare! Regards Pauline

so essentially, you havent seen Reb* / Olivia with those parents William and Elizabeth on an earlier census ?
Looks like Lizdb's 1871 earlier might be key ..... the daughter Adelaide shown as born Shoreditch, has this Birth Entry ...

sorry, added to my earlier post - see above, no new facts, only conjecture, that like Liz, wondering if Adelide is really Reb* / Olivia etc, using a more Jewish name ?
As Liz says, she did name a dau Adelaide in 1900 ....
