Can anyone help? I have found that I am directly descended from a Poznanski - one Mark Poznanski, who seems to have arrived in England between 1841 and 1851. (approx d.o.b 1824)
The 1851 census gives his place of birth as Dublin, Ireland. My gt grandmother always spoke of an early relation who was a Polish Jew, which seems to fit better, though we never knew it was her grandfather of whom she spoke!
I have no idea how to take this any further. Is there anyone who might be able to give me a clue?
