Israel Solomon was my 3 x great grandfather. He was born in Polish Prussia in 1816. He married Harriet Demery in Bath in 1844. They had 3 children, Rueben, Ann and William in Bristol where he was the landlord of two pubs. His daughter,my great great grandmother, Jane Solomon was born in 1849 in Swansea and the 1851 census records put him in Wassail Square in Swansea as a cheese dealer. Daughter Ellen Solomon was born in Merthyr Tydfil in 1853, and Louisa Solomon in 1855. In 1856 he opened a sugar boiling and confectionery establishment on Merthyr High Street and he died in 1857. Harriet remarried and had two more children, Charles and Polly Young and was still sugar boiling in Merthyr in 1891.
I'd like to find out where Israel came from, and when, and who he traveled with.
I'd also like to know how he's related to Jacob/Jaakob/Jack/John Solomon 1867 (Russia) - 1931 (Merthyr Tydfil) who traveled to Merthyr after Israel's death.
It's a big ask, but you never know....
