Disappearance of Sky Metalwala
Solomon said he believed that his son was alive, but perhaps not in the U.S. In spring of 2011, after the visit to the doctor that was the last independent record of Sky's presence outside of Biryukova's household, he recalled that her estranged father came from Ukraine to visit her. He wondered to the "Weekly" if the older man could have taken the boy back to that country with him at the time. But in 2013, he said that he did not know how that could have happened.
Solomon family
Two sons, Vaiben and Emanuel, fell foul of the law, and were transported to Sydney in 1818 on the "Lady Castlereagh" as convicts. Fifteen years later Samuel Moss Solomon and his wife Esther and many of their family emigrated to Australia in the "Enchantress", arriving in Sydney in April or May 1833. Sons Moss Samuel Solomon and Isaac Solomon emigrated, also several children of Susan Benjamin, née Solomon, and later Susan herself. Hannah (1801 – 1 September 1849), Sarah (1806 – 14 March 1893) and Phillip (1806 – September 1876) were married and remained in England.
