G’day fellow researchers. I have a stumbling block and I’m hoping someone can help.
I believe that our family name MORWITCH was changed as it crossed Europe or the English Channel. I cannot find where my paternal ancestors crossed from Europe to England. I do not know whether they crossed as a family or as individuals. All four boys I believe were born in Krakow Austria. Certainly one of them was - Samuel.
Jacob Abraham MORWITCH and Rachel had 4 sons – Samuel b. 1826, Abraham b. 1830, Henry b. 1831, and Lyons b. 1839. The brothers emigrated from Europe to England sometime between Henry’s birth in 1831 and the first appearance of Abraham in England in 1850. I have not found parents Jacob Abraham or Rachel in England to date.
I am isolated from many sources by a lack of a subscription, or distance. I would deeply appreciate any help that might allow me to identify our original family name and point of crossing to England.
