schuberts in Whitby
« on: Wednesday 18 January 06 15:38 GMT (UK) »
A friend has a relations who was called Franz Schubert and had a shop in Whitby. During ww1 he had his windows smashed because he was German. Does anyone have any information on him, his shop, the incident or his descendants.

It is possible he was headed for America but landed in Middlesborough/ whitby/ scarborough as a stopping off point before travelleing to Liverpool to get accross the Atlantic.

Is is possible that he was Jewish and trying to evade the clearences in Eastern Europe.
