HELEN MANLEY of Warwickshire needs help tracing descendants of her great great grandparents, Rosa Goldman and Samuel Kronheim, who were both born in Prussia and married in Hull in 1867.

By 1881 they were living in Julia Street in Manchester with two more daughters - Dene and Sarah - and were now known as Crown.

Still in Manchester, Dene married Abraham Rose while Esther (Etty) married Abraham Clyne and went on to have three children - Lilly, born 1889, Hyman, 1891, and Essie, 1899.

Sarah, whose stage name was 'Dolly', was a dancer and vocalist in the Four Sunbeams.

David's discovery

DAVID PHILLIP of St Helens made a chance discovery through the National Archives about his grandparents Philip and Yetta Goldberg.

Philip was born in October 1877 in Garvolin, Poland and Yetta (Yochved) Goldberg (nee Lerman) was born in September 1876 in Warsaw, Poland.

David knew that they had emigrated to Liverpool in 1904 but it was only when he saw his grandfather's application for naturalisation in 1927 that he discovered where they originally came from.

He also learned that his grandfather, left behind his brother, Moses (Moshe) Goldberg, and his sister, Yetta Goldberg.

"We don't know whether either of them escaped before the Holocaust," David said.

"Before we stumbled upon the archived naturalisation application, we had thought that our grandparents had married on arrival in Liverpool. I searched the civil marriages for the early 1900s, for Liverpool.

"I thought I had found their marriage details in 1906. However, when I received the copy marriage certificate, June 5, 1906, for a marriage solemnised at the Princes Road Synagogue, the groom was another Philip Goldberg, who married Rachel Cohen."
