List
of Subscribers to an English Haggadah 1806 (210 records)©
The following List of Subscribers was published in an old family
Haggadah, printed in Hebrew and English, Whitechapel, London, A.M. 5560,
corresponding to C.E. 1806. (For further information – including
possible amendments from you - see the article in JGSGB's SHEMOT
November 2008)
KEY to LIST OF SUBSCRIBERS
Typed within square brackets:
[Alternative documented spellings] It is likely that the handwriting on
some orders for the Haggadah was difficult to read; or the person taking
a verbal order misheard or misspelled; or the family may use different
spellings.
I [& J] Sometimes there was confusion between the capital letters ‘I’
and ‘J’, because no distinction was made at that period.
[Trade] Added after being matched by George Rigal with his records of
Insurance Policies.
[Gent] Implies a residential address, not a shop or office.
[=] This sign points to instances in which the late George Rigal
recognised the name from other sources but was unable to verify the
address.
[Added house numbers] These are suggested matches from George Rigal's
Insurance Records. In the original List of Subscribers some house
numbers - but not all - were prefixed by ‘No.’.
