Re: Help from British genners - Pinchas Hersh (Philip) KANO -

[Laurence Harris laurenceharris@btinternet.com]

X-No-archive: yes
On 17 April, Avraham Y. Kahana posted requesting advice and assistance to
identify the parents of Pinchas Hersh (Philip) KANO, who immigrated to
England, from Poland.

Avraham had found a UK National Archives Discovery catalogue entry for
Philip's British Naturalization in 1949
http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C12361045 . This is a
BNA series certificate and in most instances includes the names (and
nationalities) of the parents of the person being Naturalised. You can
order a copy of the certificate from the National Archives via their website.

Philip KANO and his family are in the 1939 UK Register - a bit like a mini
census. To view the images you will need to access a relevant commercial
website holding these images - but this will not give you the names of
his parents.

Regarding requesting further assistance for UK research and records you
could try sending a message to the Jewish Genealogical Society of Great
Britain (JGSGB) via https://www.jgsgb.org.uk/content/contact-us and join
the Jewish Communities and Records (JCR-UK) discussion group which is
free, see https://www.jewishgen.org/jcr-uk/subscribe.htm . Also there is
an active Facebook group run by JGSGB. Just type Jewish Genealogical
Society of Great Britain into the Facebook search box. It is a closed
group so you need to request to join the group - it is free and friendly.
