Barent Salomons, died 1755 Amsterdam, son of Eliazer Cohen and nn
In another part of the webside there is mention of Moses, son of Barend Michel Salomons (Cohen Kampen). This Michel is said to be the son of Philip Barend Salomons (Cohen Kampen). This is wrong, Michel was the son of Joseph Barend Salomons. But Mi chel was twice in a row married to daughters of said Philip Salomons. Michel dies fairly young in London in 1769, leaving the responsibility for his children amongst others in the hands of their grandfather Philip in Amsterdam. Grandfather, throug h the mothers line, but uncle through the fathers line! Both the testaments of Joseph S. and Michel S. still do exist (PRO-London) and mention the children as stated above.(E-mail Fred Barends (Kampen).
