I have been gathering information on Ella Blume's second husband Loris Mendelssohn. But have run out of options, he seems to have just disappeared.
Information I have on him:
Born 28 July 1898 in Johannesburg Gauteng, South Africa, father Louis Mendelssohn, a Railway Buyer. (Again I cannot find where I got this info!!! )
I think he may have arrived in Southampton after a trip with Ella, and possibly a daughter on the 5th Jun 1922, they married on the 26th June though in London, his occupation is 'Independent Means' Ella was formerly Horsford.
Ella died in Feb 1939 and she was living at 29 Ebury Street Westminster, and her husband is listed as Louis Mendelssohn occupation a 'Tennis Professional' but I cannot find him at all in any newspapers.
I have his death as 9th Nov 1969 but stupidly I did not list source and cannot think where I found this info. There is no will that I can find.
Also on the Arrival in 1922 the daughter only has her initial or 'S' and there is no note of her anywhere except on 17th June 1932 there is a departure for Natal of an S Mendelssohn aged 12 travelling on her own. I did wonder if she was in fact going to live with her father who may have left the country! But this is just speculation as I have no idea who she actually is.
I did find a Louis Mendelssohn in Ohio who was born in England in 1899 with a wife and children he is a Salesman!
Many thanks
