My family are as follows: I have also done ancestry and Ftdna. Welcome your help, discoveries, hints and ideas.

Hello fellow detectives happy isolation from New Zealand. As you can see I am researching the surname of Bockerah of London c1770's.

My ancestor lived here at Pear Tree Court, Bethnal Green 1788 [source Old Bailey] his family has been completed, but i am trying to locate his siblings, parents etc. There are many Bockron, Abrahams living in the area. Solomon married? to an Ann and had a son Solomon Bockery baptized at 9 Mar 1789 at St Leonards, Shoreditch, nothing more in known about the young Solomon.

A Clue was given when our Solomon was recorded on the Old bailey trial 10 Dec 1788 as "Solomon Baker" otherwise Buckero. Thought that 'Baker' might be his profession!. Any way a second clue is that he was buried as a reconised 'Jew' in Sydney 1791. Some talk that he may in fact be a Sephardi Jew.

My DNA has confirmed I have 1% Jewish connection. I've researched the Jewishgen site, ancestry.com but nothing concrete. So I'm looking for any body connected to these surnames, what cemeteries they may be buried in at London and helpful hints etc.

My DNA is with ancestry.com, Ftdna and my heritage.

Many thanks
Murray

Hello everyone my ancestor Solomon Bockron died on 16th July 1791 a convict Jew, buried at Sydney Cove [ source Johnson’s register of burials ] in a forgotten piece of land designated by Governor Philip... Solomon was the first person to be recognised as a Jew to be buried by Rev. Richard Johnson. Solomon’s wife Ann or Sarah Buckril is buried at St Johns cemetery, Parramatta she died 1793. Her gravestone was paid for by Judge Advocate Richard Atkins. I just trying to locate Solomon’s final resting place.
Thank you
