Born: 10 December 1889 in Manchester, England
Hebrew name: Rachel, daughter of Zelig Asher
Married: Jacob Baum in (October - December) 1930 in Manchester, England. Jacob was 47 years old and Rachel was 40 years old. They both shared the same surname but as far as I can tell they were not related to each other.
Jacob was previously married to Minnie Goldblum who died in October 1929. They had four children, Maurice born in 1912, Sarah who died in 1914, Isaac born in 1923 and Bernard. Isaac and Bernard were probably brought up by both Raie and Jacob
