Isaac Rosenberg, who was born into a family of Yiddish-speaking Lithuanian Jewish immigrants in 1890. His father was a pedlar; his mother took in washing and sold fancy needlework. The first London home they found for themselves and their five children was a single room behind a rag-and-bone shop in Tower Hamlets.from The Sunday Times: Isaac Rosenberg: The Making of a Great War Poet: A New Life by Jean Moorcroft Wilson
