ELIZABETH JOSEPH (s) nee HART c1797-1869

[phillip]

This new thread provides data on Elizabeth Joseph aka Josephs nee Hart c 1797-1869 her sister Sarah Hart and other relatives. Another researcher had suggested the possibilty that my own Hart lines may have been related to Elizabeth and Sarah because my 3x great grandfather was an executor in both sisters probate. I obtained the will of Elizabeth to confirm whether or not there was a relationship but currently this does not appear to be the case.
The thread is therefore to assist any other researchers who have Elizabeth in their family lines.
The probate for Elizabeth Joseph aka Josephs recorded- Elizabeth Joseph otherwise Josephs formerly of 61 Great Prescott Street Whitechapel but late of 3 Great Crown Court Little Pultney Street Middlesex , widow died 6 November 1869 at 3 Great Court Proved by Aaron Hart 156 Houndsditch Wholesale Boot Manufacturer and David Samuel Isaacs 3 Great Crown Court Marine Dealer the executors Effects under £600. The full will gave bequests to Mr Aaron Hart 156 Houndsditch Wholesale Boot Manufacturer £25 "for his great kindness to my late dearly beloved sister and to myself"- Catherine Isaacs daughter of David Isaacs 3 Great Crown Court St.James Westminster Middlesex Marine Store Dealer; David Isaacs her nephew 3 Great Crown Court and on his death to Mrs Hannah Isaacs his widow £100 but if she and her children marry out of the Hebrew faith they receive nothing; her brother Mr David Hart Saint Pauls Minnessotta USA and to his surviving children ( not named) attaining 21 years; Mr S Solomon Secretary Hambro Synagogue. She also referred to a legacy she received from her late sister Miss Sarah Hart.
I will post further on Elizabeth, her daughter Catherine, husband Joseph aka Joel.

The following Probate 1861 for Sarah Hart sister of Elizabeth Joseph nee Hart and others:
Sarah Hart late of of 69 Great Prescott Street Goodman's Field spinster died 16 August 1861. Executors: Asher Hyman HART Upper Bedford Place; Aaron HART Kennington Oval.
Asher Hyman Hart is likely to be the person who appears in 1861 Census with wife Rachel nee JOSEPH and 8 children- 40 Upper Bedford Place St.George Middlesex. This Asher Hyman Hart c 1811-1871 has previously been posted on several years ago. He married Rachel Joseph NSW Sydney 1840.

Sarah Hart left bequests to- " nephew David ISAACS son of my late sister Katherine ISAACS"; " my friend Henry SOLOMON Esq"; "dear sister Elizabeth JOSEPH of 69 Great Prescott Street widow".
Witnesses- Lewis EMANUEL Solicitor 31 New Broad Street; David SAMUEL Clerk to Messrs S Samuel and Emanuel 31 New Broad Street
There is no indication in either of the Elizabeth and Sarah Hart wills that my 3x great grandfather Aaron Hart executor in both wills is related to the sisters. The naming of a third sister Katherine Isaacs nee Hart in the Sarah Hart will suggests the possibility that she is one of the children of David Hart of Coventry who is recorded with his 6 children including a Kitty, Elizabeth, Sarah in the NA 219 Will extract of Judith Jacobs 1811- Synagogue Scribes Will Extracts.
