Leslie (Lazarus) was born on 6 January 1914 in Hackney, London to Polish born father Maurice and London born mother Esther nee Permutt and he had a younger brother Henry and younger sister Semele Myra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1921, the family lived at 2 Rowhill Mansions, Rowhill Road in Clapton, London and Maurice was listed as a market clerk and produce merchant in Leadenhall Market, London. In 1929, Maurice set up his own produce merchant company, M.B. Tobias & Co. based at Market Buildings, 29 Mincing Lane in London. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
