William Abraham Lindo 1810
« on: Thursday 22 February 24 16:24 GMT (UK) »
I am  searching for any information on William Abraham Lindo .
I know that he was born in the west indies circa 1810 and by 1842
he was living in London and working as a wine merchant .

I know that he married a Maria Elizabeth Taylor .They had a daughter also
called Maria Elizabeth .

I know nothing about his life in the west indies or who his parents where .Its believed that the
family might have been Sephardic jews ?

Any Information would be gratefully appreciated

I know this isn’t your WA Lindo but it’s quite an unusual name so wondered if there may be a family connection

He married Maria in 1844. Have you bought the marriage cert to establish his fathers name?

Its believed that the family might have been Sephardic jews ?

He could have a connection to the Lindo family, who were West India merchants. Namely Ephraim Lindo and older brother Benjamin Lindo. They have Sephardi community ties, as well.

Their father was Elias Lindo, a major international merchant based out of London.

After his death his wife Maria was a "mangler" not an occupation for someone from a well to do family.

Maria was buried 12 January 1890 age 67 at Lambeth.
