Hello Allan,
Philip Goldberg's Jewish name was Pesach, and his father's name was either Mechel or Mihael. Mechel is probably a Yiddish name and was commonly used in the 1800s. The spelling seems to use the Yiddish vowels, so my guess is that it was probably Mechel. (Hebrew does not use vowels, even though the consonants are the same.)
Good luck...Jo

The person's name is Pesach [same as the Hebrew name for Passover]
His father's name is Michael.
There are no Englis equivalent to Hebrew name. Michael may of course also be Mike.

the father's name is Michael - a perfect Hebrew name, in this case applicable in English too...

Here lies Pesach son of Michael, died 3 Sivan 5727. Rest in peace.
There are no rules about English equivalents of Hebrew names. This "Michael" could have called himself whatever he felt like calling himself: Max, Mike, Joe or Harry.
3 Sivan 5727 corresponds to June 11, 1967.

Here lies Pesach ben Michal, died 3 Sivan, 5726.
The logical English equivalent to Michal is Michael, but Max is just as possible.

Pesach son of reb Michael
There is no English equivalent for Pesach (Passover) and he chose Philip.
Michael (Mi-cha-el) is a Hebrew name which could have been pronounced the English way.
