Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Finding Great grandfather's Russian Latvian relatives
« on: Monday 13 October 14 19:10 BST (UK) »
George Jacob Fellman. b.1870 left Russia in 1891 + went from Manchester to Liverpool where he fathered my nana .He was in Scotland in 1906 + spent the rest of his life travelling around Wales til his death in 1924 .
It's been a real detective hunt ;starting with nana's middle name which led to an affiliation order for maintenance payments .
His hospital admission records led us to discover that he was the 2nd of 12 siblings 2 of whom were dead .(I have database from russian latvia with their names ).
His sister Rebecca Bloch living in Scotland was listed as next of kin but I'd really like to find what happened to the other 8 siblings .....did they go to America ?
Rebecca's parents names were on her death certificate as lazurus Fellman +EdithLandsman
(Leizer-mendel Fellman + Gesa-Eida (on latvian database)
younger children may have had a different mother as she died in 1888 .
Does anyone have any connections to this family ?
