I originally posted this in 2103 but got nowhere. Had a little more success since then but still need help
Elias Jacobs was the son of Matilda Jacobs(nee Marks) and John (known also as Jack or Jacob) Jacobs. He was born in Marylebone
Matilda and Jacob Jacobs were married 7/6/1865 (mar cert). Elias was born 28/2/1866 and Matilda died on the same date, obviously in childbirth.(have birth and death Cert). John Jacobs remarried in 1868 to Sarah Abrahams and had a further 11 children.
However it is Elias who I was originally interested in. However now I am looking for info on his wife and children
In the 1871 census Elias is living with his grandparents Lewis and Rachel Jacobs at 8 Ebenezer square Aldgate. John and his new family are living at 2 Ebenezer square
in the 1881 he appears as Chas(a badly written Elias?) still living with his grandparents but now at 131 Cambridge (Heath) Road Bethnal Green
1891 Cannot find trace in 1891 census. About this time he married Mary Goulding. But cannot find any record of the marriage. As no trace in census or marriage cert. I guess they were married abroad.
1901 census shows Elias Jacobs born in marylebone living at 22 Wolsey Street Mile End Old town with wife mary , children Lilly, Tilly and Elias.
1911 census shows Mary, Lillian, Matilda and Elias living at 12 George Place Mile end. Mary is shown as Head of family. Took me 3 years to find that Elias died 15/6/1911 ( d cert confirms address)
So I have Mary Born approx. 1974 in Chelsea. no b cert
Lillian (lilly) born approx. 1893 Newington Blackfriars no b cert
Matilda Margaret born 23/10/1896 5 Great Charlotte street St Saviours Southwark. Have b cert so Know that Goulding is correct
Elias born approx. 1899 Stepney no b cert
Any help would be appreciated
