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."

6760	Theatrical Lessee	Barnard, Daniel (I5753)
6761	Theatrical Manager	Barnard, David (I5754)
6762	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)
6763	There are many Ancestry Trees that have Rachel marrying Jonas Lipman in 1849. However this seems to be an example of the 'Copy & Paste Disease' that seems prevalent on Ancestry these days. The Jacobs-Lipman marriage certificate clearly shows that Rachael's father is Judah Jacobs, whereas the Jacobs-Cohen certificate names Lewis Jacobs, Glassdealer as her father. More details can be found on the Jacobs Tree website:- https://jacobstree.co.uk/2020/02/22/rachael-jacobs-b-circa-1820/ [22/02/2020]	Jacobs, Rachel (I4713)
6764	There are some additional handwritten notes on one of the pages but I am uncertain whether or not they are comtemporaneous with the rest of the document.	Source (S2222)
6765	There are two entries in the probate calender: 1. April 1919 to his widow, Maurice Winkel & Hubert Meredith ?67,142 19s 3d 2. April 1920 to Felix Lion ?3,187 4s 6d	Jacobs, Judah (I4658)
6766	There is a baptism entry for a Frank Percy Purssey being baptised in 1887. Parents are William George & Elizabeth! Address is 47 Eagle Street William George is a Printer	Purssey, Frank (I5564)
6767	There is a listing for a Sarah Louisa in both 1848 & 1849. They could be the same person or the 1849 could be a replacement.	Gomm, Sarah Louisa (I5534)
6768	There is a listing for a Sarah Louisa in both 1848 & 1849. They could be the same person or the 1849 could be a replacement.	Gomm, Sarah Louisa (I5535)
6769	There is a possibility that he later went by the names Alfred James Jacobs. On his father's Death Certificate there is an Alfred listed as the first child, which fits. In 1903 there is am Alfred James living with what appear to be siblings David and Robert Orr Jacobs There is also a possibility that he married Ruby May Trayse in 1913 and later divorced her. However there is not enough information to prove this. See divorce papers: https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageviewer/collections/61565/images/47971_302022005615_2299-00001?treeid=184571914&personid=342414467722&usePUB=true&_phsrc=JJY10&_phstart=successSource&usePUBJs=true&pId=12536	Jacobs, Humphrey James (I4102)
6770	There is a possibility that Julius' parents were Adolph and Bertha and that Bertha's mother in law was Buna Ahrens This was found on Ancestry in the 1867 census for Mecklenburg-Schwerin. The family comprises of: Adolph Sussmann Bertha Sussmann Julius Sussmann Leopold Sussmann Buna Ahrens Rebecca Sussmann Minna Sussmann Isidor Sussmann They can be found using the following link (provided you have full Ancestry access) http://search.ancestry.co.uk/iexec?htx=View&r=5538&dbid=1066&iid=CSDEU1867_15185-0538&fn=Adolph&ln=Sussmann&st=d&ssrc=&pid=1228402	Susman, Julius (I4414)
6771	There is a will extract on SynagogueScribes which appears to fit. Two children are mentioned: Daughter Elizabeth and eldest son Moses. This implies that there are other sons. A Philip Jacobs is a witness. Elizabeth marries a Philip Jacobs the following year. Also indexed in TNA records as: Reference: PROB 11/1591/61 Description: Will of Angel Myers, Rag Merchant of White Street Cutler Street Hounsditch , City of London Date: 03 April 1817 Fact Flags: Preferred	Myers, Asher Anshel (I6168)
6772	There is an Ellen Francis in St John's Convalescent Home. She is aged 10 (which is a bit out) and was born in Lambeth. Bearing in mind that her brothers are also in Brighton as well. RG 13-0927 F13 P17	Francis, Eleanor C (I6362)
6773	There is no trace of any marriage between Reginal Hugall and Matilda Rebecca Jacobs. Evidence for middle name is from Ellen's Baptism certificate.	Hugall, Reginald Herbert (I5082)
6774	There is potential for confusion over the records of the Sun Fire Office insurance company. We have Henry and Philip associated with several properties both singly and jointly. Unfortunately it is not clear whether this refers to Philip and his BROTHER Henry, or his SON Henry, or even both at different times. The best indication that we have is that in 1819 we start to get policies as Philip Jacobs & Son. I have therefore made the assumption that before that date it is the two brothers. At present it suffices to identify that the Jacobs were associated with these addresses.	Jacobs, Henry (I815)

6777	There is some confusion over her maiden name. Working through Berger I, and others, come to the conclusion that she is Catherine Davids. However, the will of Isaac Levy says that she is his sister i.e. Catherine Levy. However, in the will of Isaac Levy he refers to his sister Catherine, the wife of David Levy. Based on this I have made her Catherine Levy Can't find her in 1881 - she would have been 77	Levy, Catherine (I5670)
6778	There is some uncertainty about this child. In 1845 Moses is in court and a witness called Solomon Jacobs who describes himself as ' I am the brother of the defendant ( Moses Jacobs) ... he is an attorney at law and solicitor 101 Berwick Street'. This implies that he does exist under one name or another.	Jacobs, Samuel-Solomon (I4724)
6779	These details came from David Gardner (Feb 2009) and are unchecked at present (15/02/09) Lived to be 95 [See newspaper cutting of son's Diamon Wedding] Was a barber according to son's marriage certificate	Gardner, Laurence (I5442)
6780	These divorce proceedings were abandoned. In 1903 Theresa started divorce proceedings against Sydney. At the time Theresa gave her address as 49 Church Road, Hoylake. There is one child, Robert Cecil Jacobs - born 24 June 1897 No details are given as to why the petition was abandoned and there is no response from Sydney.	Family: Sydney Jacobs / Theresa La Grange (F2085)
6781	This census entry is for a Henry Gomm and list the number of occupants which fits roughly with our Henry Gomm's family. The main stumbling block is that he describes himself as being Free, when he is still a convict.	Gomm, Henry (I5334)
6782	This census entry is for a Henry Gomm and list the number of occupants which fits roughly with our Henry Gomm's family. The main stumbling block is that he describes himself as being Free, when he is still a convict.	Gomm, Henry (I5334)
6783	This census is a bit of a mess, but should be interpreted as Rachel Cohen Head 41 M Marine Store Dealer Angel Cohen Son 14 U Milcah Jacobs Mother 64 Wid Marine Store Dealer Leah Jacobs Sister 25 U Dressmaker	Jacobs, Leah (I4021)
6784	This copy of David's will was extracted as a transcript from the 2nd divorce petition of his son Syndey. Probate to Sydney Jacobs and Julius Jacobs, Woolen-merchants Effects: ?65,301 2s 6d - Resworn ?57,463 12s 6d	Jacobs, David (I4711)
6785	This entry found in Great Synagogue birth records Father is listed as Pais [Philip] son of David Letson. As we have no record of Beila (Elizabeth?) later, it is possible that she died young.	Jacobs, Beila (I4350)

6787	This follows on from the 1856 court case.	Jacobs, Henry (I4008)
6788	This is a bigamous marriage as he didn't get divorced from Lucy until 1934 He gives his name as Harry George Frederic Bryde No details regarding ages or his parents are given. Dora's father is listed as Joseph Arthur Fielding	Family: Frederick George Greenland / Dora Bernice Ivy Stella Fielding (F3125)
6789	This is a boarding house. Married and 2 children with her.	Nerwich, Harriet Matilda (I3996)
6790	This is a contentious entry as not everyone agrees that these three are the sons of Moses & Sarah. I have taken to decision to make the entry with this qualification in the hope that it can later be proved/disproved: Sampson Jacobs, Samuel Jacobs and Lawence Jacobs are charged with Larceny from a Dwelling. Note that in the newspaper entry from the 14th., Sampson is named as Sampson Marks but later articles refer to him as Jacobs. Samuel and Laurence (sic) were discharged and the case was dropped against Sampson. However the articles clearly link them as brothers.	Jacobs, Sampson (I4785)

6793	This is a copy of an application for a birth certificate prepared by Alice herself. There is no matching entry in the BMD index. This implies that Alice either wasn't registered or was registered under a different name. Either way, Alice wasn't aware of this.	Source (S2181)
6794	This is a very complex court case but from it we learn that Edward has a brother called William and an uncle called Henry Levy	Levy, Edward Lawrence (I4533)
6795	This is an unconfirmed entry but bearing in mind david;s predliction for Ribbon, it seems that this is likely to be the right person.	Jacobs, David (I897)
6796	This is based on parents marrying in 1881 and David featuring in an 1888 photograph Fact Flags: Preferred	Jacobs, David Henry (I4811)

6798	This is from 'Printers' Notices' at the London Metrolpolitan Archives. MP/LP/1804/13 From LMA Staff regarding entries for Lewis & Isaac Pesman: The only extra information on these documents other than what is described in the catalogue are the names of those who witnessed the signing. The 1804 document is witnessed by Lewis Pesman. The 1830 document is witnessed by Nathaniel Carter. No further family history details are given. It basically says that they had printing presses at the addresses stated and are applying for a licence in accordance with the act of the 39th year of King George the third, for the more effective suppression of seditious or treacherous societies.	Pesman, Isaac (I5798)
