« on: Wednesday 03 August 05 22:08 BST (UK)  »
Am looking for any information regarding the Sapiera family who were Russian immigrants in the last part of the 19th Century.  In particular
Alec and his wife Ada, nee Friedman
their sons Phillip, Hyman and daughter Bessie

They could have been under the name Shapiera as that was the name used by Phillip aka Percival, who married Gertrude Eldon.  Phillip was born in Soho.

May also be known as Shapiro

Thanks

Nottinghamshire / Winterbotham - Peet
« on: Monday 01 August 05 14:42 BST (UK)  »
In my family tree I have a Florence Louisa Winterbotham Peet b 1880.  Whilst seraching for connections I have found a lot of Peet's who possibly have Winterbotham or Winterbottom as one of their middle names.

Such as Anne W Peet
Gertrude A W Peet etc

Was wondering if anyone can shed a light as to why Winterbotham is connected with the Peets and is used as a middle name?

Many thanks
Steve
