Ooops didn't read prpperly what ShaunJ found.
Manchester Abraham born was her Brother
He also had a Son she named Abraham
As ShaunJ pointed out I am looking for Cousin Abraham
Possibly me researching Bessie she may have had other Cousins Reside with her
Those potential Siblings of Canadian Abraham may point us to their Parents and eventually Abrahams Year Birth which is what I am after.

A look at the pre-war Canadian incoming passenger records produces a couple of possibilities if the suggestion that he was born in England rather than Canada is correct, and an allowance is made for the anglicization of his surname.

There is an Abraham Goldstein aged 26 and born in England, who arrives on the Empress of Ireland at Quebec City in May 1908, accompanied by a Samuel Goldstein aged 33. Abraham is described as a returning Canadian, Samuel is described as a tourist, and their final destination is Montreal.

The second possibility is an Abraham Goldstone aged 28 and coming from Lancashire, England, who arrives on the Tunisian at Quebec City in August 1906. Abraham's occupation is given as tailor, and his destination is Montreal once again.

The only thing that puts me off these two possibilities are their ages, both of them would be in their mid- to late-30's a decade later.

 CraigM63    You may be on the right English line.
Just had email from my Florida Cousin who Researchers Unknown Pals with me on the Liverpoolpals Roll of Honour Memorial website.
She stated she looked at this Soldier several years ago and got stuck.
She founded him listed on a Jewish U.K. Roll of Honour not Canada
Was intending to look at her External Hard Drive Copy with his research kept on but just arrived in Liverpool yesterday for 10 weeks here to visit Family.
We will have to wait to She goes back to Florida in a few weeks
Ongoing Research

He's listed in the British Jewry Book of Honour, but unfortunately this only confirms that he served with the 17th Battalion of the King's Liverpool Regiment. He is not listed in the section that contains the roll of honour of all those who were killed. Incidentally, this book seems to contain the names of those who not only served with the British Army, but also those who served with at least some other Commonwealth countries.
