The document heading says it all. I’m trying to document the genealogy of my Paternal GF, Joseph Kulman.
Born: c. 1876 in Bauska, Latvia. No confirming documentation.
Died: August 17, 1910. Montreal, PQ, Canada. Buried at Baron de Hirsch Cemetery, Montreal, PQ, Canada. Have Death Record and Picture of Headstone
Emigration/ Immigration Path
Latvia to England – Documentation Needed
England to South Africa – Ship’s Manifest
South Africa to England – Documentation needed
England to Quebec, Canada - Ship’s Manifest
South African Immigration – Documentation needed
Canadian Immigration – Listed as English so Citizenship was implied.
Married Rose Ziman at Capetown, South Africa – Documentation needed
Children:
Daughter Rose Kulman, 1901 Capetown South Africa – Documentation needed
Daughter Sarah Kulman, 1906 Ste Agathe des Montes, PQ, Canada – No documentation available, Use 1911 Census
Son Samuel Kulman, 1908 Ste Agathe des Montes, PQ, Canada – No documentation available, Use 1911 Census
Son Julius Kulman, April 17, 1910 Ste Agathe des Montes, PQ, Canada – No documentation available, Use 1911 Census. Also, See Julius Kulman Folder for records. There’s confusion on this birth with a 1927 Registration showing 1906. 1910 is correct. The 1906 record was done to get him immigration rights to the US in 1927 at the age of 17.
To-Do’s:
I need to find a either pointers to the South African records that I’m missing or a researcher, preferably local and focused on South African Jewish Genealogy.
I also would like to get the 1907 Notary Bail (Lease?) translated from French to English . I have the entire document and have also enlarged it into 3 section to make it easier to real.
I would like a translation of the Hebrew on the Headstone.
