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 ....

['Trish']

Yes that is a thought, William and Elizabeth did have a daughter Adelaide and at the time I just though it was a 'family' name.  Would welcome suggestions though.

Looks like Anna and Liz above are saying the same thing ?

[PaulineJ]

Maybe she 'converted' religion before marriage?

Hmm.  (another Pauline)

Good thinking PJ - would there be a record of the Jewish marriage ceremony ?

[PaulineJ]

Dunno, My lot were Catholics...

There is a rootschatter with extensive Jewish Knowledge and access to some records i think - I came across him (think it was a he) on another post a while back...... I'll have a scout round my ancient postings and see if I can come up with a name for you - if I can it might be worth a PM.
I seem to recall that the Jews he was helping with did have a registry office ceremony and then a separate Jewish synagogye ceremony.... but sorry memory all a bit vague ....

[lizdb]

OK - found it. I'll send a PM to JustinL and ask him to have a squint at this thread to see if his Jewish knowledge can be of assistance!
