The only marriage I can find around the right time for a Rebecca Bl*mb*rg is in Dec 1/4 1880 Birmingham registration district with the groom Matthew Gablenofski. So did he change his surname to his from name?

Does your friend not have Lazarus' and Rachel's marriage certificate?

Lazarus Blumberg m. Rachel Pizar
Q3 London City vol 1c p288

The 1891 census reported that Lazarus came from Riga (where some of your Fellmans ended up). Riga was the captial of Courland/Kurland. Although formerly a province of the Russian Empire, Courland was ruled by Baltic German nobility until the 1880s. There was a very strong German cultural and linguistic influence. It is no surprise that Lazarus identified himself as German.

The surname Pizar/Pizer is derived from Peizer (ei is a long vowel sound, like ie in pie), the German name for what is now Pyzdry, SE of Poznan. Peizer was on the Russian side of the border between the Prussian province of Posen and Russian-ruled Congress Poland until 1918.

Nathan called himself Francis Nathaniel Bloomberg and married Fanny Posner in Q1 1895 London City. They had a son named Henry Percy Bloomberg, b. 1896 in Stoke Newington.

Abraham (later known as Alfred) married Catherine 'Kate' Zwart in Q2 1892 London City. They had at least two children:

Harry Percy Bloomberg, b. 1892 Burton-on-Trent
Violet Stella or Stella Violet Bloomberg, b. 1905 Hackney

Samuel and Ezekiel are very elusive.
