Colman SOLOMON
Tweet
Dear Listers,
Most of you may remember me often asking about the HART family, Benjamin and Matilda, both born around 1850. I do have the dates for both.
Matilda was born 1852 in England. It is her parents I would like to know more about, other than Matilda's birth date all I can add is that his name is Colman Solomon.
If you can give me any assistance I'd truly appreciate it.
Best wishes to you and yours, Ray [Melbourne]

Re: Colman SOLOMON
I can't find your Solomons in 1861 and later but I have found this family in 1851
29 Bow Street, Covent Garden
Coleman Solomon 25 Fruiterer born Middlesex
Selina Wife 22 born Rochester, Kent
Louise daur. 3 born Middlesex
Could these be yours?

Re: Colman SOLOMON
Emeltree,
I was tempted to say yes but then remembered the marriage certificate. It says Colmon Solomon was a furniture dealer.
Thank you away.

Hi Hawks,
Sorry, but I'm unable to offer you concrete evidence, however I have a theory to put forward!
In 1861 we have.
Name: Matilda Soloman Age: 9 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1852 Relation: Granddaughter Gender: Female Where born: Brixton, Surrey, England
Civil Parish: Lambeth Ecclesiastical parish: St Mary County/Island: Surrey Country: England
Ralphel Myers/60/head/Auctioneer/Bermondsey
Elizabeth Myers/62/wife/Whitechapel
Esther Soloman/16/grandau/Holborn
Matilda Soloman/9/grandau/Brixton
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And a possible marriage.

Re: Colman SOLOMON
This Colman was a furniture broker. So, if he's the one it shoots down my previous theory.

Re: Colman SOLOMON
I'm tired now and must go to bed. I'll take a look tomorrow at the census returns, and if I find anything I'll let you know.
Re: Colman SOLOMON
This looks promising to fit in with my first theory! Soloman, or is he Colman, was a general dealer (which could have transmuted to furniture dealer) And it's possible Matilda and her sister Esther were staying with grandparents on census night. Am I clutching at straws? Probably! But hey anything is possible, I've learned over time to be open minded and not always expect a certain person, to be in a certain place, with a certain family.
1861 census.
Name: Amelia Soloman Age: 46 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1815 Relation: Wife Spouse's Name: Soloman Gender: Female Where born: London, England
Civil Parish: Spitalfields Ecclesiastical parish: Christchurch County/Island: Middlesex Country: England
Soloman Soloman 50 Amelia Soloman 46 Sarah Soloman 21 Rebecca Soloman 17 Tilly Soloman 15 Julia Soloman 14 Hobbey Soloman 7 Joseph Soloman 5 Lizar Soloman 4

I really am going to bed now.
Re: Colman SOLOMON
Dear Slizzy,
I can't begin to thank you for the effort you put in on my behalf.
Below is a cut and paste I wrote for someone else but you will see the little bits it gives us about Coleman Solomon.
What I would give to live in High Road, Finchley, London. With a little bit of luck I would be able to slip next door and into the Beth Din and go through their files.
No, I don't have a Hebrew Authorisation.
The only detail comes from Benjamin and Matilda's wedding certificate
mores the pity is....
1/ Wedding Registration # 175
2/ Place; General Registration Office.
3/ Application; BOO9921.
4/ Solemized; 9 Bedford Sq. .... Stepney Middlesex.
5/ Date; 10/2/1875.
6/ Her name as mentioned on cert. Matilda Solomon.
7/ Age 20yrs.
8/ Spimster.
9/ Rank or Profession; NA.
10/ Residence of marriage; 9 Bedford Sq. Mile End.
11/ Father's Name; Coleman Solomon.
12/ Rank or Profession; Furniture Salesman.
13/ Married at; 10 as above.
14/ Wittnesses; Aaron Simmons and Lionel Isaacs.
15/ Marriage; in Jewish Religion by N. Adler, Chief Rabbi.
16/ Secretary of Synagogue; Moses Keizer.
So as you can see that is all I have to do with Coleman and Matilda's Birth.
Not sure of any siblings. Sorry I don't have a whole lot of info.
Have a great day, Ray

Re: Colman SOLOMON
Slizzy,
Sorry I have not written earlier, I have been in hospital for the last ten days.
I think we have to consider your earlier post shot down. I have a wedding certificate [1875] for Benjamin Hart/Matilda Solomon. This gives her father Colman Solomon as a furniture dealer.
It is possible Matilda may have been working in another household at the time. I have seen a census giving a Matilda Solomon as a servant for a grocer just before the year of her marriage 1875.
Best wishes, Ray
