As you didn't give a place in the UK, or any indication of when
1911 census from FMP


Marks Hymovitch Head Married Male Cabinet Maker 30 1881 Roumania
Polly Hymovitch Wife Married Female - 29 1882 Roumania
Sam Hymovitch Son - Male - 8 1903 London
Hyman Hymovitch Son - Male - 7 1904 London
Philip Hymovitch Son - Male - 4 1907 London
Jack Hymovitch Son - Male - 3 1908 London

John - Boarder Single Male Coffe Roaster 33 1878 London
Jane Schwartz Boarder Single Male Leather Feller Hand 20 1891 Roumania

14 Denmark Street, St George in the East, London

Married 10 years, 4 children born. This would suggest they migrated about 1902/03

To find people on this site who may be related, search all members trees, top right under Search. Use both the Hymovitch and Hyams surnames

As we don't know *Polly's* maiden name, we don't know the names of the other children born after Apr 1911. It would be helpful if you could post them.

Let us know which child is your ancestor. That's so we don't try to search records and end up with you!

Thank you to everyone for all that info. But have already got all that about their my grandparents children etc. Have got the 9011 census. Also have managed to find uncles and aunts birth certificates etc. Philip Hyams or Hymovitch was my father. Have got some of the uncles spouses etc. Need to know if they had any family. Only know of five cousins and who their parents were. Mostly aunts family. Know my Uncle Harry Hyams had two girls. Know of one called Shirley. Anyone out there know of any others.

I am still not sure what you have to do on this threads. So to all those who have replied. Thanks for info. Still not sure if you are just doing the research for me or not. But thanks. I will get the hang of this one day.

Hi 'Unknown'...what helpers try and do on the thread is to find out as much as possible of the background of the people being looked for in order to work forward, no one who has posted is a relative.

+++DetEcTive+++ has posted the possible births, what you need to do now is follow through and see which of those children married and had children, try using freebmd.org.uk for that.

Also search trees on here ( 'Search' top of page) for the names you have.

Possible marriage for Harry

Marriages Sep 1945 (>99%)
Hyamovitch Harry Breibart Westminster 1a 1438

Using freebmd, and the surnames above, you can find the children ...Shirley you know, Linda, and a possible son 1959...though birth is in a different area to the 2 girls.

Several replies form the poster which covers most of the info she's given. One other snippet

................
I am related to Philip Hymovitch. Hyams is what it was changed to. My grandparents were Polly and Marks. Have all that info. Just can't find anything from Romania about them. As far as I have been told they came to the UK in 1900 and got married here ? mark over that. As I haven't been able to find any info on that at all. Can't even find out about their Romania roots. Her name before her marriage was Weiss.

As you've now got the hang of the boards, it's best to acknowledge further info by posting in here. :-)
