In a desperate to solve a family mystery I am seeking some information about a Rebecca Perlson (Rebecca Perelzon Pearlson) who seems to have vanished >from the UK records although there is strong evidence she was in Hull (UK) where her son Lazarus Goldstone was born in 1872. Her older children were all born in "Russia" possibly in the Bialostok region. Her name appears in later censuses as the mother of three children of whom she was most certainly not the mother. Her "husband" Jacob Meyer Goldstone had 3 more children by Shane Bala Jane Franklin whose marriage can not be found and who eventually assumed the title as widow of Jacob Goldstone in the 1891 census after the death of Jacob Meyer Goldstone.
Perelzon is fairly uncommon
The absence of a record of marriage between Shane Bala Jane Franklin or a record of the death of Rebecca Perlson. It seems unlikely that Rebecca Perlson would desert 3 children and vanish. Why did Jacob Goldstone perpetrate this charade.
