This post is the beginning of a review of the relationships between the Nathan/Levy/Jacobs lines some data on which has been previously posted under "Edward Lawrence Levy-solicitor"; " Turnpike Trust Levy";"Jacobs china and glass dealers.."

In particular, the following post will look at the records relating to Maurice Newton Nathan 1848-1926 who married Lizzie Constance Jacobs. Maurice was to change his surname to NEWTON. Maurice was one of the children of Lawrence Isaac Nathan 1803-1866 and Julia Abraham 1813-
( I will fill in dates of birth, marriage, death once they have been verified). Lawrence was the son of Isaac Nathan b abt 1775.
The Standard ( London) Nov 7 1834 refers to Lawrence Isaac Nathan Sheriff's Officer of Middlesex at 126 Chancery Lane and an earlier article also in The Standard dated Jan 24 1828 also identified Lawrence as a Sheriff's Officer. Earlier postings on the Edward Lawrence Levy lines had identified William Levy and his son Lawrence Levy as Sheriff's Officers Middlesex and unsurprisingly the various families connect through marriage to Nathan and Jacobs and others.
Doreen Berger in 'The Jewish Victorian. Genealogical Information from the Jewish Newspapers 1871-1880' Robert Boyd Publisher 1999 records the marriage of Maurice to Lizzie on 11.8.1875 at Gt Portland St Synagogue. Maurice was living at 19 Charlotte St Bedford Square. Lizzie Constance Jacobs was the 2nd daughter of the late David Jacobs of 38 Upper Bedford Place Russell Square. Lizzie descended from Henry Jacobs and Kitty Moses through her father David.
