Hello Gloria,

Thanks for that.

It does look likely that Millie and L? were related.

Do you by any chance have a subscription for The Jewish Chronicle (I don't)? A search in their archives throws up the name Lewis Gralnick several times. The only other Gralnick is Mille. Without a subscription, it is not possible to read the full entry.

I assume that you already knew that Marks and Leah are buried in the Edmonton cemetery.

Wow ... I looked again and I'm sure the initial is L, so maybe it is Lewis.
No, I don't have a subscription to the JC but I'll see what I can come up with. I'm planning a visit to Edmonton Cemetry when I come to England next month.

Will keep you posted.

Crossing fingers! Thank you very much indeed. I did try entering "Lewis Gralnick" into the JC archive but nothing came up .... odd

Sorry - that's what happens when you're rushing. I entered the info into the JC search not the archives. As you said there seem to be several entries for 'Lewish Gralnick'. I think this is the family I"m looking for ...

Hi Gloria I am just waiting on a phone call to be able to confirm Annie and Millie being related, but i think they are and will have to find the notes I made.

Justin, I am still waiting to hear if anyone has the fathers death registration but will certainly let you know when I hear.

Regards

Anner,

Whose father do you mean? Hyman J Osterley's?

What Gloria really needs is the marriage registration for Lewis Gralnick and Annie Spielman. I assume it was between 1911 (census) and early 1916 (daughter born in Q4).

Something else to follow up is the GURALNICK family also of London, headed by Israel. Although his daughter, Milly, was born in London in 1900, I cannot find them in the 1901 census.

I wonder, did they too come from Odesa?
