Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 26 Send Message	I have a Lena Lyonson mother of Eva Rabinowitz and wife of Joseph Rabinowitz. This is the first Lyonson on Genes Reunited, any idea's is it a made up name to hide a Jewish background? Rgards Andrew

	I just put the name into Google and came up with some hits of which this is one (remove asterisk): http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/ENG-LIVERPOOL/2003-02/1044109999 From: "J A Olsen" <[email protected]> Subject: [ENG-LIV] GOLDBERG & LYONSON Date: Sat, 01 Feb 2003 14:33:19 +0000 Hi everyone would be grateful for a directory look-up for a firm of tailors probably called GOLDBERG & LYONSON who were probably in the early years of the 20thC. I was told Lime Street but have been contacted by a descendant who says it was "London Road". thanks for any info Judy **** I can't help thinking that these names have a Jewish air about them! In an earlier post, she mentions Ginsberg as well. Christine

	Goldberg and Lyonson? Tailors? Couldn't be anything BUT Jewish, I wouldnt think.

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 26 Send Message	Christine thanks once again. I did that same search and got the http address but could not get the web page for some strange reason. That has possibilities due to Lena Lyonson's Husband Joseph Rabinowitz being a taylors presser on the marriage certificate and I have heard not Goldberge but Fineburge mentioned. I just wonder? It will be hard to find out though I have not heard of many Lyonsons. Regards Andrew
