Hi Tom,

Very fascinating vignette of my great aunt's 3rd marriage.  My dad called her Auntie Tids.  Anyway, Philip Baron Grzimish was the son of Israel Halevi Grzymisch (1772 to 1843) of Pleschen and Posen in Prussia. Israel's wife was woman named Jette.  Their children were Sura (or Dora),  Moses Levy, Philip Baron, Maryann, Ernestine and Baer.  Philip married Esther Barnett and had the following children:

Julia (1852-1892) m. Michael Joseph and then Henry Bandmacher
Isadore(Israel) (1854-1929) m. Rose Hannah Jones in 1883
Bertha Flora (c1855-          ) m. John Lee in 1876
Rebecca (Rose) (1856 -      )m. Baron Louis Benas (1844-1914)
Samuel (1857-1902) m. Emily Jane Phillips in 1876
Baron(Bernard) (1861-1937)
Adelaide(1863-     ) m. Simon Davis

I have more information about their descendants if anyone is interested

My great grandparents were Bertha Grzymisch and John Walter Lee.  They had a son as well as a daughter, my grandfather Alfred Lee who spent a good deal of time in the British Army in places like Khartoum in the Sudan campaign and South Africa during the Boer war.  I inherited a pair of oil paintings of Phillip and Esther done when they were in there mid thirties (by my guess).
