10169 The 1881 and 1901 censuses list her place of birth as Cincinnati whereas the 1861 census lists her as being born in Kentucky.

 
JACOBS, Hannah (I3969)
 
10170 The 1939 Register lists her as both Shelmerdine and Clayton.
A search reveals the 2nd marriage.
As Eric didn't die until 1971 assume they divorced. 
Family: Edward CLAYTON / Nellie GUINNANE (F872)
 
10171 The age is taken from LPRS 127 which was, I believe, transcribed from the registers, not microfilm.
Several places site the age as 32 which I think is a mistranscription.
FMP have right age but have indexed it as E Isabel

10173 The baptism index give Mossop as his middle name. This could be an error for Moscrop, his mother's maiden name. BANKS, Isaac Mossop (I1922)
 
10174 The census is 5 pages long but Amy is on page 1 so only that page attached. Source (S3777)
 
10175 The children in 1841 all seem too young for William & Sarah
More like grand children 
Family: William HALL / Sarah [HALL] (F2137)
 
10176 The cremated remains have been scattered. KINDER, Emma (I50)
 
10177 The CWGC certificate refers to her as Rose Rowland (formerly Shutt)
I presume that she remarried after Robert's death and that the memorial was erected after that. 
WADE, Rosa (I1693)
 
10178 The date comes from her Baptism certificate
I haven't been able to find a matching BMD.
It is possible that the family moved between birth & baptism 
TWINE, Elizabeth (I1309)
 
10179 The entry gives 24 Dunham Street. H and I have interpreted the H as Hulme
Note that Dunham Street feature for other family members on several occasions, but not No. 24

Householder 
GUINNANE, Thomas (I179)
 
10180 The entry in Myer Solomon's Circumcision Register fits well.
Given that it was custom to circumcise a male child about 8 days after birth, this would give us a birth date of 17th September 1831 
JACOBS, Henry (I816)
 
10181 The entry in Myer Solomon's Circumcision Register fits well.
Given that it was custom to circumcise a male child about 8 days after birth, this would give us a birth date of 6th October 1834 
JACOBS, Lawrence (I774)
 
10182 The entry is crossed out and as there is another entry for the journey earlier in the month, it is likely that he cancelled this journey. JACOBS, Moses (I4363)
 
10183 The exact date and address came from Manfred Lindner's records.
As at 2/Aug/2008 don't have a copy of the certificate. 
JACOBS, Moses (I4014)
 
10184 The family is also known as Sankson SANKSTONE, James Wilson (I2215)
 
10185 The inscription on Simon LEVY's grave is:
"In memory of/Mr Simon Levy/Late of Charles St Soho Square/Obit Jany 30th AM 5587/In the sixty seventh year/Of his life" (died 30 Jan 1827)
 
LEVY, Simon (I4673)
 
10186 The link here is not 100% at present, but then not everything is.
We know that Henry Jacobs was a Glassman practising in Petticoat Lane.
We know that his father was David Jacobs.
We believe that David Jacobs was also known as David Litzen/Letson.
In an Old Bailey trial of 1795 there is a witness Kitty Jacobs whose husband has a glass business in Petticoat Lane.
In the Great Synagogue Marriage Record transcript there is an entry for a Kitty Moses marrying a Henry Jacobs whose father is David Letson

Update October 2021
I was contacted by Daniel Cohen with regards to untranslated information on the marriage entry.
It would appear that the English translation was not as full as the Hebrew original.

Shlomo Katanka also had a look at it for me.

The items adjusted are:
Bride's Name:
In English - Kitty Moses
In Hebrew - Keila bat Rachel Moshe Cohen

Father's Name:
In English - Henry Jacobs
In Hebrew - Henry Jacobs, Hirsh ben David Litzig [The Litzig throws some doubt on this being David Litzen]

Shlomo's translation
1. ???? ?"? ? ??? ???
Keila bas Reb Rochel Moshe Cohen
Bas Reb = daughter of Mr

2.
???? ?"? ??? ?????
Hirsh Ben Reb Dovid Liztig
Ben Reb = son of Mr

3.

Mr Iitzik the Chazan = Cantor

10187 The Mackney's had a 'Ghost Pavillion' at one point. it can be seen in one of the photographs.

The following is a description:

"A ghost show using a magic lantern to project images of ghosts, skeletons, and other macabre beings onto a screen was referred to as a "phantasmagoria" (a collection of ghosts). Loud explosions, thunderclaps and a smokey atomosphere (created with dry ice) added to the special effects. " 
Family: Thomas MCNAIR / Margaret LOMAS (F38)
 
10188 The Morning Chronicle Saturday 19 February 1859 Source (S3134)
 
10189 The name Litzen is placed by Hyamson on the Henry Jacobs family tree as the original family surname for David Jacobs. In the Great Synagogue Records transcribed by Angela Shire she writes the name as LETSON and there are several names recorded under marriages and births where the Letson name appears.

Phil Kirby did further research and came to the belief that the surname is LITZEN which is German and also a town name in what was Western Prussia. The town still exists. 47?52'00.0"N 10?25'00.0"E

Philip believes that David Litzen moved around the Polish/German areas and came to the UK probably to escape the Polish pogroms.
Philip has also looked at the Polish History and the Russian history and have a pretty good idea about the changing influences on Jews in those areas.

If you look on Familysearch site ( the Mormons) you can see the family name Litzen and it is usually Swedish/German/Finnish.

Philip thinks David Litzen changed his name to Jacobs for business reasons and also because it was easier to pronounce. 
JACOBS, David (I897)
 
10190 The name Orr comes from his mother's mother. JACOBS, Robert Orr (I4718)
 
10191 The name was changed to Stewart in 1904
This was recorded in The Times and the Jewish Chronicle.
Michael also changed his forename to Alfred Michael 
Family: Michael SIEGENBERG / Julia JACOBS (F1430)
 
10192 The parish register entry clearly gives Mary's surname as Walton but I have some doubts over her signature. I think that the signatures of bride, groom and witnesses may not be originals - they look too neat and similar. [The unsure signature is on the original PR, the BT copy is a definite Walton]
In my own mind I am satisfied that Mary is indeed Wilton.
Unfortunately the Banns register has not survived so it is unlikely that we will find any other proof. 
Family: James MCNAIR / Mary WILTON (F436)
 
10193 The West Coast Times reported on the 19 Aug 1885 that "A little boy named Laurence Jacobs, half-brother to Mr H. Jacobs, met with a painful accident yesterday, by which he sustained a compound fracture of the arm. He was playing in the gymnasium of the State School, and by some means fell, when the accident took place. He was conveyed to the Hospital, and is now doing as well as can be expected." JACOBS, Lawrence Albert (I4137)
 
10194 The word 'Germany' refers to place of birth and is incorrect.

JACOBS, Rebecca (I4714)
 
10195 There appears to be a second Henry in the list, aged 3. But this makes no sense.
At that point in the list (between Lawrence Jr amd Rebecca I would have expected no one. 
LEVY, Henry Lawrence (I5124)
 
10196 There are 2 Baptisms on FMP and Family Search. Possibly the first Alice died and the other is a replacement? BIGLAND, Alice Winstanley (I8050)
 
10197 There are 2 entries in the GRO, one in 1898 and one in 1900
Both have mother as Perkins and the same registration district.
I can find no death to imply that the 2nd Frank was a replacement.
Also I can also only find 1 Varo-Perkins marriage. [28/03/2022] 
VARO, Frank (I6982)
 
10198 There are 2 entries:
William Guinnane which cross references to William Partington Guinnane
Died 13 Jan 1970
Don't know why the administration is so long after death. 
GUINNANE, William Partington (I1786)
 
10199 There are 2 possible GRO entries:
1879 JFM Bootle 10B 443 Age 70
1880 AMJ Bootle 10B 412 Age 72 
TYSON, John (I110)
 
10200 There are 2 possibles, both as steel:
1878 AMJ Bootle 10A 387 (Age 0)
1879 JFM Bootle 10A 447 (Age 1) 
STEELE, Elizabeth (I3542)
