My apologies,

No Henry Redwood in Germany - only Redwoods around that time were from Prussia and went to US

Sorry

There is a son Marx b 1882 not shown on 1911 census.
I don´t have a marriage cert as I don´t know whereabouts in Germany they came from.
I can´t find a death for Tina in the UK nor can I find Marx anywhere.
I hope you can help. Thank you.

Tina is a real mystery. I cannot find Tina anywhere. Could Tina be short for something or her second name?

Do you have a marriage cert for Hyman and Tina?

Did they have any children?

Regards

Hello Gael, I´m copying my previous request rom July. I read your note that you had been away but I am hoping you will be able to help. Many thanks. I have no idea where in Germany they came from.

"Hello Gael, hope you can help me find mc for Hyman (Henry) Redwood and Tina ilatz. who were immigrants to the UK from Germany in the 1880s. Henry is a 54 year old Master Tailor and a widower in 1911 living in Holborn. Can´t find wife Tina´s (b c.1864) death anywhere and wondered if she died in Germany. Many thanks."

I couldn't find the birth of Carl, so I can't help you there. Looked under all the 1833's.

Couldn't find any births for either Catherine or Friedrick - It doesn't go far enough back only to 1790's.

Gael,

This is fantastic, thank you. Just a query has she got the details of Carl correct, if you can find them. Apparently, she got his details from her great aunt a number of years ago.

Thank you Gael,

She is very happy with this info, is it to much to ask if you can give some information on Sophia's family, about her parents, siblings etc.

Many thanks
