Julius's father Samuel Pam had a second marriage to Karoline after Rosa Bodacher died in 1841. Karoline had two children Kamilla and Julius. Julius was born in Opatov near Lanskroun, Czech Republic. Nothing is know about him till he was 27 years of age when he appeared in an 1881 Census in Hackney, London as a Lodger along with his brother in law Henry Pick (Elizabeth Pam's son)
At the age of 35 he married Helene Furth in Prague. Helene's sister Phillipine Furth was my Great Grand Mother. She married Leopold Pam.
He was appointed as Consul at Kimberley, South Africa to the Emperor of Austria in 1888. On an unknown date he was awarded the Commanders Cross (Imperial Austrian Franz Joseph Award)
Julius and his two half brothers, Leopold and Julius were involved in the Diamond trade.
The 'Julius Pam Diamond' is a 246-carat diamond found in the Jagersfontein United Mine, Republic of South Africa, in 1889. Julius was the principal owner of the mine. It weighed 123 carats after cutting. It was valued at between £15-£20,000 It is not known where this diamond is today.
Julius was one the ten most important Diamond Merchants in Kimberley between 1871-1890. These specialists bought diamonds for the London market
The 1891 census shows him living with his half brother, Leopold in Clapham, London. His occupation then was a Cape Merchant. Many Cape Merchants worked for the East India Company involded in Import/Export business with South Africa.
From 1906 he and Helene were living in Surbiton, Surrey. In 1907 he became a Naturalised UK citizen.
In 1915 at the age of 60 Julius committed suicide. It is not clear what led to this tragic event. He shot himself at his business address in Central London. He left a widow and five young children.
