| Note | Born in Kretinga in 1838, he was engaged at the household of Wolf Charles Behrman in Kretinga to water the horses and keep the household supplied with water from the deep wells in the courtyard. At the age of 14 he was drafted to the Czarist army. Around 1859, on leave with his family for the first time from the army after 14 years of duty, he was smuggled by friends across the Prussian border to Memel and embarked on a timber ship bound for Hartlepool in England. Disembarking in Hartlepool, a customs officer escorted him to the home of Abraham Cassell of West Hartlepool. Cassell provided Bernstein with a glazing crate, some tools and a little glass. Looking for work, he walked to Sunderland, where he settled working as a carpenter and glazer, the professions he had learnt from his father, Meir 'the Disler' Gillis, later becoming a successful furniture manufacturer. First Krottinger to settle in Sunderland in 1859. The news of Barnett's prosperity spread to Kretinga and soon many others, many of them relatives, joined him in Sunderland. (Levy 1956: 94).
On Crottingen Relief Fund after fire in 1889 (Levy 1956: 95).
