The evidence from the 1861 Census was that he was born in Middlesex; his younger sister Bella is sometimes stated to have been born in Jamaica - see http://akevoth.org/genealogy/asser/756.htm - but this must be incorrect on the basis just stated.

With some difficulty, we have concluded that though she is known as Judith Joseph Levi (see will extract of Joseph Barrow on www.barrow-lousada.org key documents), her real father was Jacob Levi. Marriage #24 of ref 132 of www.barrow-lousada.org gives her name as Judith Jacob Levi. As the will of the first Simon Barrow refers to her mother as Eve Joseph, it seems that she married Jacob first then Joseph. The Barrow Family Tree on www.barrow-lousada.org shows Eve as marrying Jacob Levi.
Judith Jacob/Joseph Levi married Eliezer Montefiore; but cousin (step-half-brother!) was Jacob Joseph Levi. Both siblings contributed Australian immigrants and both were ancestors of the Levi Montefiores.
Many genealogies erroneously have her as Judith (nee) Barrow - omitting the fact that she is a granddaughter not a daughter of SB1 as can be seen from the will of SB1 (see Frank Cheesman's notes on this will on www.barrow-lousada.org - go to 'key documents'). She is described as Judith Barrow of London and Barbados by http://miriamhakedosha.blogspot.com/2008/08/montefiore-family.html

birthdate not known but probably in the 1775-7 period
of Barbados (from will of Joseph Barrow)
http://miriamhakedosha.blogspot.com/2008/08/montefiore-family.html gives an incorrect account of the children of Eliezer Montefiore. Thus it gives them as:
John Castello Montefiore [b.1790] who married Mary Elizabeth Law (not correct for James Greener shows that he was born around 1794 and probably was a nephew of Eliezer Montefiore) Moses Augustus Montefiore [b.1798] Jacob Montefiore [b.1802] who married Justina Lydia Gompertz Joseph Barrow Montefiore [b.1801] who married Rebecca Moccata Esther Hannah Montefiore [b.1799] who married Isaac Levi Evelina Montefiore who married Abraham MocattaSarah Montefiore[b.1782] who married Thomas Farrell son of Nathaniel Farrell was not of this 1797 marriage - it is likely not only that her birthdate shown here is incorrect but neither was a daughter of Eliezer's sister Rachel for she married in 1788 aged 23.
Jewish Encyclopedia gives him marrying granddaughter of Simon Barrow (of Amsterdam - except that there is no evidence Simon Barrow was in Amsterdam!)

Last surviving Royal Commissioner for the Colonization of South Australia
from http://miriamhakedosha.blogspot.com/2008/08/montefiore-family.html we learn of the Australian children
The Jewish Encyclopedia writes about Jacob Montefiore son of Eliezer Montefiore of Barbados. "Jacob Montefiore: Merchant; born in Bridgetown, England, Nov. 23, 1801; died Nov. 3, 1895. He entered into business with his brother Moses, and when in the early thirties the movement for the financing of Australian colonization from London was incepted Montefiore, who had been connected with the Colonial produce trade, became active in the various public schemes as a member of the South Australian Colonization Association, organized to settle South Australia on the Wakefield system. He was also appointed member of the first board of commissioners entrusted by the British government with the administration of the colony. He visited the colony in the year 1843 and again in 1854. His reception on his first visit by the governor, Sir George Grey, and the people was enthusiastic. During his visit to South Australia in 1843 he acted as an agent for the Rothschilds, at the same time holding a partnership with his brother Joseph Barrow in the firm of Montefiore Brothers of London and Sydney. The township of Montefiore, at the confluence of the Bell and MacQuarrie rivers, in Wellington Valley, was founded by the brothers, and they contributed actively to the establishment there of places of worship for all denominations. The organization of the Bank of Australasia was largely due to their efforts. In Adelaide there is a hill named after them. In 1885, at the request of the directors of the Art Union Gallery of Adelaide, Jacob sat for the artist B. S. Marks, the portrait being hung in that gallery.
Jacob Levi Montefiore was the brother of Eliezer Levi Montefiore a famous Australian artist. This Entry is in the 'Australian Dictionary of Biography':There are errors here - Jacob Barrow Montefiore was the uncle of Jacob Levi Montefiore and of Eliezer Levi Montefiore
from http://www.oztorah.com/2013/03/the-jewish-emigrants-from-britain-australia-new-zealand/
The free settlers came from a higher socio-economic group than most of the convicts. The free settler movement was a generally middle-class phenomenon, and some of its leading members belonged to the interlinked prominent families of Anglo-Jewry known as "the Cousinhood". One notable example was Joseph Barrow Montefiore (1803-1893), a cousin of Sir Moses Montefiore. Born in London, he was the youngest son of Eliezer and Judith Montefiore. In 1826, at a cost of ₤1,500, he had bought a seat on the London Stock Exchange and become one of the twelve "Jew brokers" in the City. After arriving in Sydney with his wife and two children in 1830, he invested in the wool trade and mining, also acquiring extensive landed property by 1838. Together with his elder brother, Jacob Montefiore (1801-1895), he established JB Montefiore & Co. and helped to found the Bank of Australasia. It was at the suggestion of Sir Moses Montefiore that Jacob was one of the eleven commissioners appointed by King William IV to plan a convict-free colony in South Australia. When Australia's first Jewish congregation (forerunner of Sydney's Great Synagogue ) was established in 1832, Joseph Montefiore served as its first president, his name being a guarantee of Jewish respectability. The economic boom burst in 1840, however, and his firm went bankrupt. He returned to London but was soon back in business (with his nephew) as an importer and shipping agent in South Australia, where he became a leader of the Adelaide Jewish community. Eliezer Levi
Montefiore, also prominent in communal affairs, was one of the country's leading artists. Altogether, the Montefiores made a historic contribution to the development of Australia; and it is hardly surprising that there is a township called Montefiores in New South Wales and a Montefiore Hill overlooking the city of Adelaide.
