Europe / Russian Jewish Immigants
« on: Monday 09 August 10 17:25 BST (UK) »
Maybe someone could offer me advice please. I am researching for my auntie, who is 85 and has now lost most of her sight. She researched her whole family in the old-fashioned way before computers, but got stuck on the Russian Jewish immigrants, and before she could get any further she lost her sight. Anyway, there was a whole family of them surname HARRIS who we think arrived at Kingston upon Hull around 1877. They were all born in Russia: Bernard, Hannah, Ellen, Annie,Jacob, Lazarus, Lewis, Pollie, Samuel, and Sarah. Ellen married someone called Ellis, but we have never traced him. Birthplaces Senokosnyy. Auntie would be happy if she could at least find the port and year of entry. Thanks everyone.
