Hi Keith,
I belive that makes us third cousins, then, with the common ancestor our great great grandfather Samuel. What I have about Solomon: apparently he was married twice. The first marriage was to a Sarah ? in 1865 with a daughter Kate. He was married a second time in 1893 to an Alice ?, b. 1861. The children of the second marriage: Simeon, Selina, Sarah (Sadie) my grandmother who married Samuel Levy after they both emigrated to the USA (Trenton NJ) where they had one son, Gilbert b. 1926, my father who married Bernice Etzcovitz in 1948. I (Mark) was born in 1950 and my sister Elise in 1952.
Currently I am researching the maiden names of both of Solomon's wives, especially my great grandmother Alice. The other motive is to determine if this Hyams family were Sephardic Jews. I have a cousin who has traced the Levy family back to Sevilla Spain. There is also a second Hyams cousin in Essex England who I am in touch with.
Wondering where you are and if we might communicate directly by email? Mine is
mitzvahmus@aol.com and I am in California.
