*1915 - [[Rebecca Hyman]] a 'grocer' was a tenant in a shop in 87 Oxford Street in Glasgow. The landlord was [[Gray Edmiston]] of 58 Newark Drive per [[James B. Livingston]], 35 South Portland St, in the Gorbals, very close to the [[South Portland Street Synagogue]] and the [[Glasgow Jewish Institute]]. He appears to have been the agent of Edmiston. He (Edmiston) owned a series of properties in Oxford street including nos 73, 75, 77,79, 81, 83, 85, 87, 89, 91.<br />
*1921 - Census data states that [[Morris Wolfson (b 1845)]] (76, so presumably born approx 1845) born in Kovno, Russia (known today as Kaunas, Lithuania), a naturalised British subject was a retired Watchman. He lived at at 73 Nicholson Street, Glasgow in a three room house in Tradeston/Gorbals which was subsequently demolished and now forms part of the site of [[Glasgow Sherriff Court]]. One other person was living there called [[Leah Hyman]] (60) born in Riga, Russia, in current day Latvia. She was listed as widowed, and as a 'house keeper' and 'general servant'. This would appear to be [[Rebecca Leah Wolfson]] who later appeared in her death certificate as Morris's wife.<br />
