Thread: Meir Cohen [Hakcohen Hart]

Greetings,
I'm wondering if some clever member might be able to research my relative. He is Mier COHEN [or HAKCOHEN HART]. I have done my research mostly on JGSGB because at this time the family was Jewish, attending the Great Synagogue of London.
The birth year I have is 1750, no marriage date, no spouse, and no death date. The children [those I have] are Moses c1794 and Lipman no birth date.

Truly appreciate your help and think I understand the difficulty I am setting before you.]
Very best to you and yours, Ray [Australia]

It appears that Moses and Lipman had a sister, Rosetta.

I'll carry on looking and see what else I can find!

Hi Everyone,
Very sorry to have been so slow getting back.
I'm not sure the Moses you have provided is a fit.
Popular belief says Moses wife is now believed to be Leah Benjamin and very likely he would be a fishmonger.
Sorry.
