I have a Jacob Freedman living in 6 King Street North listed as a Hardware Merchant in 1881.
Hi Ambyrne,
Do you mean this Jacob Freedman is part of your tree ? If so, could there be any link to this Freedman family ? I'm researching Tobias Freedman & trying to find a link to what looks like Julius/Julia Freedman (Male) aged 65 & Faiga Freedman (Female) aged 64 on the 1901, boarding with the Maslisnsky family at 2, Emorville Square, Dublin.
I'm also researching this Freedman family:-
Family Nş 1, are 2 brothers:
Aaron Marcus Freedman: born 20/5/1872. Date of file Jun 1902.
Between Oct 1896-Mar 1901 he lived at: 102 Lower Clanbrassil St Between March-1901-June 1902 he lived at: 5 Lombard St West. Born Russian Empire- Weksna/Meksna, Kovno
Parents: Daniel and Libe Freedman, both Russian.
Married - 2 children: Tobias, 2 and Flora Gerta 6 mths
Occupation: Draper
Family Nş 2. We also found Nat Records at Kew for:-
Isaac Freedman, born 10/3/1854 in Smeksna, Kovno, Russia. (Date of Nat File 1892)
Isaac lived (Between Mar 1891-Apr 1892) at: 37, Lombard St West, Dublin (same street & same time as "Aaron, Marcus Freedman" Lived there)
Isaac's Parents are "Tobias and FEGE Freedman" both of Russian Nationality.
------------------
A descendant of family Nş 1 lives in Melbourne & a descendant of Nş 2 lives in Tel Aviv. The Tobias aged 2 years went to South Africa & one of his descendants became Mayor of Johannesburg.
We feel strongly that all these Freedman's are linked & we are researching all of these Freedman's & would be interested in exchanging info with anyone connected to these families.
