Isaac Da Costa

  Research Notes:

source: & Sandra Stone who notes:
Before she died Dinah wrote a will asking that her sister-in-law Elizabeth Ellis be guardian of her young daughter Fanny - the witnesses to the will were Isaac Da Costa and Elizabeth Ellis who later married in 1934.
Isaac died in 1950 and on his memorial it says that he is mourned by ..............adopted daughter Frances............so I am assuming that was Fanny Ellis? but I do not know whether she took the name 'Da Costa' or whether she kept the surname 'Ellis'
