There are 505 surnames on this page, all of them found on old stammbaums (family trees) in my possession. Most of them are identifiably Ashkenazi Jewish names associated with my family from Franconia and Bavaria, Germany. Surnames listed in (parenthesis) were known to have been changed' during the course of a single person's life. Any surname that does not immediately say "Jewish" to you is likely the result of an assimmilationist name change or a post-Holocaust marriage to a non-Jew in America. Those who are direct maternal line descendants of Dorothea Dormitzer Fraenfeld and carry h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA are marked as such.

THE FAMILY

I am the daughter of Liselotte Erlanger (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA), a Holocaust survivor from Germany, with relatives living in Israel, England, and the Americas. I am not a devoutly observant Jew, by any means, as i will be the first to admit, but by Jewish law and by self-identification, I am a Jew, with a family tree extending back in Franconia, Germany to the 1700s.

This family seems to be genetically inclined to selecting occupations, careers, and even hobbies from a distinct set of options. The preponderant majority of those for whom i could locate an occupation or pre-occupation have been musicians, scientists (especially chemists), inventors, researchers, lawyers and judges, doctors, bankers, and, above all, writers and publishers. Our family is quite rich in writers, even among those with other ostensible professions. We have a predilection for toy trains and miniaturization in general, natural history, music appreciation, and art collecting. In earlier times there were rabbis and kabbalists and kings in the family, some of whom are still renowned. But, travelling back in time to Franconia during the age of industrialization, one career associated with the German wing of the family is banking and commodities trading -- specifically banking associated with the financial support network that grew up around the 18th century hops trade in Franconia.

There is a very nice web site by Susanne Rieger and Gerhard Jochem where you can find historical records and even pictures of some of the hundreds of my Jewish family ancestors and collateral relatives who were hops factors, hops salesmen, and hopyard bankers in Nurnberg (Nuremberg) before the Shoa. Here are some places to start:

Jewish Hops Trade in Nuremburg

home.t-online.de/home/RIJONUE/hopstrad.htm

Jewish Topography of Nuremburg

home.t-online.de/home/RIJONUE/nurem3.htm

The names you will see in my family tree or stammbaum (and on a list of Jewish hops merchants at the above-mentioned site) include Hopf, Kohn, Erlanger, Engelmann, Bing, Lehmann, Bachmann, Ottenstein, Stern, Wolff, Reizenstein, Tuchmann, Mandelbaum, Frauenfeld, Oppenheim, Oppenheimer, Loeb, Levi, and so forth -- a veritable litany of the Askenazy Jewish professional, banking, and merchant class of the region around Nuremburg, Fuerth, Neustadt an der Aisch, Erlangen, Uhlfeld, Floss, and Markt Erlbach, going back to the time before the German government imposed surnames on Jews.

One of my earliest ancestors who had a German surname was Marum Josef Engelmann ("Angel-Man"), born in the mid 1700s in Franconia, but of all the surnames in my family tree, Hopf is my favourite, because it means "hops," and this is what so many of my ancestors traded in, right up until World War Two -- hops for beer-making. A picture of the Nuremberg hops market in the 1880s is at

www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/nuremberg2/nurem3.html

The name Hopf entered my family as a self-chosen surname. It was some time after the German government imposed surnames, instead of allowing Jews to use their traditional Jewish patronymics, before people settled on surnames that they actually liked and felt comfortable with. As a result, there was a lot of name-swapping going on back in the late 1700s and early 1800s, during the early years of German surnames.

My great-great-great-great-grandfather Mordechai Josef Levi (1774-1850) was, according to a family chronicle published during the 1920s, the illegitimate son of a man whose surname was Kohn. This is interesting, because his descendants married people with the Kohn surname -- probably their own unacknowledged cousins. In any case, Mordechai Josef Levi (Kohn) married Mirjam Engelmann (1780-1858), the daughter of Josef / Joseph Marum Engelmann and his wife Heindel / Huendl, who was known as Babette.

In 1813, Mordechai Josef Levi (Kohn) changed his name to Marx Tuchmann. In German, the name Tuchmann, literally "cloth-man," can mean "cloth-merchant" or, more derogatorily, it can mean "prayer-shawl man" in reference to the wearing of Jewish Tallit. However, as Marx Tuchmann later explained to his family, he chose the name Tuchmann because although he was a hops merchant, another Jewish hops merchant had already taken the name Hopf ("hops") in his home town and he was denied the use of the name in that town, so he decided on the name Tuchmann in reference to hop-sacking, the cloth from which the bags were made in which hops were stored; he dealt in hop-sacking as well as in hops, you see!

With this name-change, Mordechai's wife Mirjam / Miriam Engelmann Levi became Mariane Engelmann Tuchmann, and their ten-year-old daughter Gella Levi (1803-1880) became Karoline Tuchmann.

In the 1820s Karoline Tuchmann married Loeb Mandelbaum (1794-1856) and became Karoline Mandelbaum. The surname Mandelbaum means "almond-tree," but like his father-in-law, Loeb was a hops-factor, not an almond orchardist, so in 1833, he changed the family name from Mandelbaum to Hopf ("hops"), and Karoline finished out her life as Karoline Hopf, the same surname she would have had, had her father been allowed the use of the Hopf surname in 1813. Gella was my great-great-great grandmother, and if you click on this picture of her, you will see what she looked like.

The Kohn family, like the Levi-Tuchmann (illegitimate Kohn) family and the Mandelbaum-Hopf family, was also associated with the hops trade, but being a bit more well-to-do, they operated an agricultural bank, lending money to hops-farmers, hops-factors, and hops-warehousemen. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many men in the family were lawyers, a career path that remains notable in the family to the present time. Others in the family were musicians, and many writers, chemists, doctors, and academic folks also belong to this family.

Josef Kohn, my great-great-grandfather, is mentioned in the "Chronology of Nuremberg's Jewish history 1146 - 1945" at

http://home.t-online.de/home/RIJONUE/jtn_intr.htm#Chronology

The entry reads as follows:

"1850: Josef Kohn from the neighboring village of Markt Erlbach is allowed by the municipal authorities to settle down in Nuremberg. He became the first Jewish citizen of Nuremberg after a period of 350 years."

These days, my family is a globe-spanning group of Kohns and Wolffs and Erlangers and Reizensteins -- and none of those who survived the Hitler-time live in Nuremberg or Neustadt an der Aisch or Fuerth or Uhlfeld or Markt Erlbach anymore, and none of them deal in hops.

THE POLITICAL PROGRESSIVES

Although my family includes many rabbis in the era before the Enlightenment, when one looks as far back as the late 1700s, it is apparent that the emphasis changed from a focus on religious adherence and spiritual instruction to a focus on the social lives of Jews and on political progressivism in general. In fact, i would say that a good part of my family, from the early 1800s onward, were financiers and philanthropists who were concerned with progressive political and educational goals, rather than religious issues. This continued into the 20th century with support for the civil rights movement in America and interest in experiments in kibbutz and commune living in Israel and the United States.

I show descendency from four men and one women who were identified as wealthy philanthropic benefactors of the Jewish community of Nurnberg -- that is, funders and social "machers" who kept the Jewish community secure, but not rabbis per se.

A) Josef Kohn c. 1805 Markt Erlbach - c. 1865 Nurnberg. [dates unknown as i am missing page 1 of the Kohn-Hirsch stammbaum] "The first Israelite citizen of the Bavarian city of Nuremburg was Joseph Kohn from Markt Erlbach, who was accepted on May 16, 1850, after controversial debates, with 9 against 8 votes" per Barbeck. He was a banker. Married to Sofie Frauenfeld 30 April 1816 Buechenbach - 7 July 1867 Nurnberg cited directly below.

B) Sofie Frauenfeld 30 April 1816 Buechenbach - 7 July 1867 Nurnberg. "Sophie Kohn donated 10,000 florins for the establishment of a polytechnic institute [in Nurnberg]," per Barbeck. Married to Josef Kohn c. 1805 Markt Erlbach - c. 1865 Nurnberg cited directly above. Sister of Betty Frauenfeld 9 August 1830 Buechenbach - 6 November 1880 Nurnberg cited below. Aunt of Pauline Hopf 12 December 1853 Nurnberg - 24 April 1922 Nurnberg cited below.

C) Loeb Hopf born Loeb Mandelbaum 6 June 1794 Uhlfeld - 19 August 1866 Nurnberg. "The first chariman of the religious community" [of Nurnberg, 1862] per Barbeck. He was a hops-factor and agricultural banker (that is, he loaned money on hops futures; perhaps we would call him a commodities trader in modern terms). Married to Gella / Karoline Levi / Tuchmann 25 August 1803 Uhlfeld - 6 July 1880 Nurnberg. Father-in-law of Betty Frauenfeld 9 August 1830 Buechenbach - 6 November 1880 Nurnberg cited below. Paternal grandfather of Pauline Hopf 12 December 1853 Nurnberg - 24 April 1922 Nurnberg cited below.

D) Anton Kohn c. 1815 Markt Erlbach - c. 1875 Nurnberg. [dates unknown as i am missing page 1 of the Kohn-Hirsch stammbaum] "3rd chairman of the religious community" [of Nurnberg] per Barbeck. He was a banker. Younger brother of Josef Kohn c. 1805 Markt Erlbach - c. 1865 Nurnberg cited above. Uncle of Max Kohn 2 April 1841 Markt Erlbach - 2 February 1898 Nurnberg cited below. Married to Kathie Arnstein 23 February 1820 - 20 February 1911.

E) Max Kohn 2 April 1841 Markt Erlbach - 2 February 1898 Nurnberg. He paid for the gilding of the synagogue roof in Nurnberg, fought the rabbinical leadership over the issue of women's rights and lost, and then paid for the gilding of the St. Elizabeth Kirche in revenge, due to what he perceived as the Catholic Church's fairer treatment of women. He was a banker. Son of Josef Kohn c. 1805 Markt Erlbach - c. 1865 Nurnberg cited above and Sofie Frauenfeld 30 April 1816 Buechenbach - 7 July 1867 Nurnberg cited above. Nephew of Anton Kohn c. 1815 Markt Erlbach - c. 1875 Nurnberg cited above. Married to Pauline Hopf 12 December 1853 Nurnberg - 24 April 1922 Nurnberg (Pauline was the daughter of Betty Frauenfeld 9 August 1830 Buechenbach - 6 November 1880 Nurnberg cited above, the niece of Sofie Frauenfeld 30 April 1816 Buechenbach - 7 July 1867 Nurnberg cited above, and the granddaughter of Loeb Hopf a.k.a. Loeb Mandelbaum 6 June 1794 Uhlfeld - 19 August 1866 Nurnberg cited above.)

THE ENDOMAGOUS TENDENCY

Ashkenazi Jews are known for marrying their close relatives. Cousins married cousins and brother-sister pairs cross-married sister-brother pairs. Some geneticists have speculated that most German Jews are fifth or sixth cousins to one another.

There were multiple cousin marriages in my family. The extended family remained close and it was the custom for all of the first and second cousins (who simply referred to one another as "cousins") to summer together in groups at the homes of alternating aunts and uncles. They would organize skiing trips together during the winter as well.

Here are some notable cross-marriages and inbreeding between the various branches of my family:

Hopf-Frauenfeld-Kohn Endogamy

My great-great-grandfather Stefan Hopf (ne Mandelbaum) married my great-great-grandmother Betty Frauenfeld. (Betty was the daughter of my great-great-great grandmother Dorothea, last name unknown but possibly Dormitzer, born around 1819, who had married Jakob Frauenfeld; Dorothea Unknown / Dormitzer is the woman through whom i inherited my h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA haplogroup.)

Around the same time:

My great-great-grandfather Josef Kohn married my great-great-grandmother Sophie Frauenfeld, who was Betty Frauenfeld's sister (and another inheritor of Dorothea's h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA haplogroup).

I am descended from both of the Frauenfeld sisters, because

Josef Kohn and Sophie Frauenfeld Kohn's son Max Kohn (my great-grandfather) married his cousin, Pauline Hopf (my great-grandmother, h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA), who was the daughter of Stefan Hopf and Betty Frauenfeld Hopf (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA).

Their daughter, Ida Kohn, my maternal grandmother (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA), was the offspring of this first-cousin marriage. The Max Kohn / Pauline Hopf union produced 12 children. One died in infancy, one died young, and one was born mildly mentally retarded and diabetic, possibly with some form of Down's syndrome. This cheerful, small, diabetic "Aunt Emmy" (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA) was a companion of my mother during her childhood, as the various siblings took turns caring for her.

Erlanger-Birgstein Endogamy

Dr. Theodor David Erlanger 
Born 2 Aug 1880 in Neustadt an der Aisch
Married Ida Kohn (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA) 30 June 1912 in Nurnberg
Died 10 October 1956 in London, England, Age  76, Heart Attack

After their marriage, Theodor ("Theo") and Ida lived in Munich, with a summer home in Bad Tolz. Theodor, my paternal grandfather, was a Freemason and an officer in the German Army in World War One. He served in France, where he was captured and kept as a prisoner of war until the end of the fighting. He was a copyright and patent lawyer and also the lawyer of several members of the deposed German royal family who were suing to regain their estates and possessions after the overthrow of the Kaiser. His interests were in folklore and folk-art, particularly the folk-art of Bavarian Catholic peasants, and he maintained a large and varied collection of Bavarian peasant antiquities at the summer home in Bad Tolz. When the Nazis came to power, he, Ida, and their two daughters separately made their way from Germany to England and then to the USA. (Side note: Theo's brother-in-law Bruno Kohn and his brother Arthur Erlanger also served as officers in the German Army during World War One. Bruno was wounded and sent to a P.O.W. camp in England; he married an English P.O.W. camp nurse, Nelly Buckman (sister of the painter Percy Buckman) and settled there permanently. Arthur moved to the USA on business after the war and travelled regularly between Germany and America on business. These two men -- Bruno Kohn and Arthur Erlanger -- were the conduits through which many members of the Erlanger, Kohn, and Lang families obtained work-visas and made it out of Germany before the onset of World War Two.) At the time of his death Theodor was a naturailized US citizen with his old summer home in Bad Tolz (he had successfully sued to regain it) and a winter home in Queens, NY. He died of a heart attack while visiting Edith Pauline Marie Lang Collett (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA), his niece. (Edith was the daughter of Theodor's sister-in-law Clara Kohn (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA) and her husband Hugo Lang; Edith had fled to England and married a Mr. Collett; her brother Friedel Max "Fred" Lang and their mother Clara Kohn Lang settled in Southern California.)

Theodor David Erlanger's Mother:

Pauline Birgstein
Born 28 December 1851 in Pahres
Married Hirsh "Hermann" Erlanger Unknown Day and Month, 1872 in Pahres 
(Note: Pauline's husband was her first cousin)
Died 2 July 1931 in Bad Tolz (that is, at the summer home of Theodor and Ida), Age 79, Cause Unknown

I have a photo of a portrait painting of her, but no other mementos. I also have a very nice 1990 memoir of a trip back to Germany taken by Raphael "Rolf" Elsberg and a group of Birgstein / Elsberg relatives in search of any visual remains of the Jewish cemetery and the houses that the Birsteins, Elsbergs, and Erlangers had once owned in Franconia. The Elsberg portion of the family now lives in Israel, and thereby hangs a tale my mother told me:

The Kohn family (Ida's family) was wealthier than the Erlanger family. The Kohns had become Reform-minded due to Max Kohn's having had eight daughters: (all h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA) and feeling that Orthodox Judaism was discriminatory against women. He led a movement in Nurnberg to allow women to be seated with men in the synagogue, but he was outvoted. Since he was a wealthy banker and had paid for the gilding of the roof of the synagogue and for many of its furnishings, he became very angry at this rebuff and he did two things in revenge: First, he paid for the gilding of the roof of the St. Elizabeth Kirche (a Catholic church!) across the street from the synagogue -- "because THEY at least let the women sit with the men"), and then he declared that he would divide his fortune equally among his sons and his daughters but ONLY if the daughters married men who allowed them to not keep kosher homes or abide by Orthodox rules concerning the cutting or covering of the hair of wives. Any daughter who married Orthodox was to get no money -- "Let her have the pleasure and comfort of her religion instead!" he said. So out of all his six marriageable daughters (one had died in infancy and one was born with Down's Syndrome), only two decided to stay Orthodox and marry Orthodox men -- and as a result of the Holocaust, they went to Israel. The other four daughters all married men who were either Reform-minded or who were poor and wanted a shot at the Kohn wealth. Ida's marriage to Theodor was a bit of both: He came from an Orthodox family but gave that up to become Reform-minded when he married Ida. Or so my mother told me.

Pauline Birgstein's Mother:

Fanny Froelichstein
Born 14 May 1820, Unknown Location
Married Joel Birgstein 22 November 1891 in Neustadt an der Aisch
Died 13 July 1882 in Neustadt An der Aisch, Age 62, Unknown Cause

I have a photo of a portrait painting of her and a delicate little porcelain pitcher she owned, which she had given to her daughter Pauline Birgstein and which Pauline brought with her when she moved into the home with Theo and Ida during her widowhood. The pitcher is twelve-panelled and is decorated all around with the astrological signs of the zodiac, as well as with tiny images of insects and flowers. It had become broken around 1914 or so (before my mother's birth), and it was carefully glued together by my grandmother Ida Erlanger, who liked to repair antiques and keep them. Pauline promised this pitcher to my mother Lilo, as a memento of Lilo's great-grandmother, whom she had never known, but everything was displaced by the war and my mother did not receive it then. However, after the war it, along with much other dinnerware and silverware that had been put aside, was distributed, and then my mother got it. In the early 1980s she gave it to me, because i am an astrologer, and i had it looked at by a china appraiser who said it was made around 1815-1820 (before Fanny's birth) and therefore might have belonged to Fanny's mother, and that it was also of interest because the maker's mark on the bottom had been carefully ground off, and that this grinding away of maker's marks was something that she, the appraiser, had encountered before among pieces that belonged to German Jews, but she did not know why it was done. She thought the little pitcher might be from the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory but was not sure.

So not only was my maternal grandmother Ida Kohn the offspring of a first-cousin marriage, my maternal grandfather Theo was also the offspring of a first-cousin marriage. Heart disease ran in the male line of his family (the Erlangers) and upon autopsy, Theo was found to have been born with a rather severe heart defect, which apparently had never bothered him, or kept him from joining the German Army or becoming a hobby mountain climber. The nature of the heart defect is not known to me with certainty -- from the description given, it was probably an atrial valve defect.

Erlanger-Stern-Wolff Endogamy

Here's another example of familial endogamy:

These are the grandparents of my maternal grandfather Theodor Erlanger, noted above. In addition to their son, Hirsh "Hermann" Erlanger, Theo's father, Isaac Abraham Erlanger and Lea Louise Birgstein also had a daughter:

Antonie Erlanger 29 July 1856 - 11 February 1928

On 26 February 1876 she married

Benjamin Stern 30 July 1851 - 7 October 1926

From the marriage of Antonie Erlanger and Benjamin Stern there issued a whole passel of Stern children, including these daughters --

Rosel Stern 14 October 1881 - 2 June 1935

and, six years later --

Meta Stern 6 August 1887 - 15 April 1964.

On 7 May 1902, Rosel Stern married

Willy Wolff 15 November 1871 - 30 October 1933.

Willy Wolff had a brother who happened to share his birthdate, but was four years younger --

Leopold Wolff 15 November 1875 - 16 July 1961.

On 24 January 1908, six years after the marriage of Willy Wolff to Rosel Sterm, Willy's younger brother Leopold Wolff married Rosel's younger sister Meta Stern.

Subsequently, Rosel and Willy had two children, the youngest of whom was --

Ernst "Ernie" Wolff 13 June 1916 -

According to his naturalization papers, Ernie arrived in America on 3 March 1939 and was vouched for by a resident of Birmingham, England (a family member, no doubt). On 30 January 1942, Ernst married his second cousin, my aunt

Renata "Rena" Erlanger 6 June 1913 Munich (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA)-

And thereby hangs another tale:

In fact, Ernie Wolff first proposed to Renata's younger sister my mother --

Liselotte Franziska "Lilo" Erlanger 12 June 1915 Munich - 15 October 2005 Little River California (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA)

-- but she turned him down because they were second cousins through the Erlanger-Wolff line, both being descendants of Abraham Jakob Erlanger, born in 1761. Her reasoning was that her father, Theo Erlanger, was already the result of a first cousin marriage on the Erlanger-Birgstein line and her mother Ida Kohn being the result of a first-cousin marriage on the Kohn-Hopf line (which had produced one mentally retarded offspring) it just made her "nervous" to think of all the cousin marriages, and she very heavily weighed the possibility of having children born with birth defects if she were to marry Ernie, who was also not only inbred himself, but also was a collateral relative of her own lime of inbred Erlangers. So very shortly thereafter, Ernie proposed to her older sister, Rena Erlanger (h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA), and they married. Ernie entered service in the United States Army during World War II and became a naturalized citizen on 19 May 1944. In due time, he and Rena, despite my mother's fears, had three healthy kids, my cousins Phyllis Wolff, Deila Wolff, and Teddy Wolff (all h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA).

All's well that ends well! But for DNA researchers, it is obvious that the Erlanger-Birgstein-Stern-Wolff connection is a pretty solid block, autosomal-DNA-wise.

If you believe you may be related to me, please do drop me a line. In the interests of genetic genealogical research, i have had my DNA registered at Family Tree DNA -- and i encourage everyone to do so as well; it's a fun way to understand your genealogy by genetics.

THE STAMMBAUMS

I have many pages of typewritten family tree data, and have slowly been placing it online at Geni.com -- assisted by the help of many other contributors. The documents are as follows:

1) "Stammbaum & Chronik der Familie Tuchmann aus Uhlfeld b/ Neustadt a/A. ferner Stammbaum u. Chroniken der Familien: Hopf, Winkler, Reitzenberger, Bing, Iglauer," 21 pages, typescript, containing the records of 276 marriages that produced offspring. It begins with Joseph Engelmann and Heindel (Babette) [Unknown], and their daughter Mirjam Engelmann. The earliest dated birth is that of Mordechai Josef Levi (later known as Marx Tuchman), born in 1774, who married Mirjam Engelman. The latest recorded birth date is 1927. The author is unknown, but may have been my grandmother, Ida Kohn Erlanger. The 195 Kohn-Tuchmann-Hopf Surnames include:

Abernheimer, Adler, Alsberg, Bachmann, Bachmann, Bachmann, Bachrach, Balla, Bamberger, Bamberger, Bamberger, Baruch, Bauernfreund, Beck, Behringer, Benario, Bendit, Bergmann, Bernert, Biber, Bierer, Bing, Binswanger, Bloch, Bloch, Blumenthal, Borges, Brauf, Bruckmann, Bruell-Brull, Buckman, Buday, Coons, Davidson, de Cortes, Dessauer, Eberstadt, Eckstein, Einstein, Eisenberg, Engelmann, Erlanger, Falk, Feistmann, Fels, Field, Fleischmann, Flersheim, Flersheim, Frank, Frauenfeld, Freudenberger, Fried, Friedmann, Frowenfield-(Frauenfeld), Fuld, Fuerst-Furst, Gans, Geiershoefer-Geiershofer, Gerngross, Gernheim, Gerst, Gierschner, Gocidicka, Goetz-Gotz, Goldmann, Goldschmidt, Goldstein, Goodman, Guldmann, Gunzehauser, Gutherz, Gutmann, Hachmann, Hassdoerfer-Hassdorfer, Hassdorfer, Hattlender, Hausmeister, Heidenheimer, Heiden-Heimer, Heller, Hellmann, Hermann, Heskel, Hess, Hesselberger, Hesslein, Hilb, Hirsch, Hirschberg, Hirschhorn, Hirschmann, Hofmann, Hollerbusch, Hollmuth, Hopf, Hopf-(Mandelbaum), Iglauer, Jordan, Joseph, Josephthal, Jul, Jung, Junge, Kann, Kirchlein, Kirchner-(Kirschner), Klein, Klenk, Klopfer, Kohn, Koondis, Kopf, Krackenberger, Kraus, Kuehlken-Kuhlken, Kuln, Kuppermann, Lachmann, Lang, Lauinger, Lebmann, Lebrecht, Lehman, Lehmeier, Lessing, Levi, Levine, Levi-(Tuchmann), Liebhold, Loebl-Lobl, Loeb-Lob, Loewensberg-Lowensberg, Loewenthal-Lowenthal, Loewi-Lowi, Loth, Maienthau, Mailaender, Mandelbaum-(Hopf), Marx, Mayer, Mayers, Mendel, Menz, Metzger, Meyer, Michaelis, Mueller-Muller, Myners, Nathan, Naumburg, Neumeyer, Neustaetter-Neustatter, Oberdorfer, Obermeyer, Oppenheim, Ortweiller, Ottensooser, Ottenstein, Ottinger, Patscher, Pauceanu, Phillip, Pickard, Pretsfeld, Puvermacher, Raffy, Rau, Reichel, Reichenberger, Reis, Reitzenberger, Reizenstein, Rice, Ries, Roesel-Rosel, Rosenbaum, Rosenblatt, Rosenfeld, Rosenstein, Rosenstock, Rosenwald, Ruppel, Rupprecht, Sahlmann, Salmonson, Sarfaty, Scherer-(Adelsdorf), Schiff, Schlossheimer, Schoen-Schon, Schuler, Schultz, Schweitzer, Seckendorf, Seidlein, Seligman, Shulz, Sichel, Siedentopf, Siegmann, Silbermann, Silbiger, Simon, Sinauer, Stahl, Stauffenberg, Stein, Steiner, Steinhardt, Stern, Stransky, Strauss, Strautsky, Sundheimer, Teutsch, Tuchmann, Tuchmann-(Levi), Tuchmann-(Turner), Turner-(Tuchmann), Ullmann, Ungar, Ury, Vollrath, Weber, Weil, Weiser, Wertheimer, Werthheim, Westheimer, Wicker, Wiener, Winkler, Wohl, Wolf, Wood, Wurtzburger, Zeiller, Zempelburg, Zimmer

In addition to the usual slight changes in spelling one commonly finds in German surnames, especially when some family members emigrate to Anglophone nations -- Rice / Ries / Reis, Roesel / Rosel, Wertheim / Werthheimer, Kirchner / Kirschner, Frauenfeld / Frowenfield, etcetera -- this branch of the family seems to have made many more complete surname changes than other branches. Occasionally first names were also changed:

Surname Changes: Levi to Tuchmann to Turner

Mordechai Levi changed his name to Marx Tuchmann in 1813. His wife Mirjam Engelmann Levi became Mariane Tuchmann, and their ten-year-old daughter Gella Levi (born in 1803) became Karoline Tuchmann at that time.

Some members of Tuchmann family emigrated to London or the United States during the 19th century, and some of the emigrants who bore the Tuchmann surname adopted the Anglicized surname Turner. However, it should be noted that on the male lineage, all of these Turner and Tuchmann families originally had the surname Levi, and if DNA genealogy searches are made, the three surnames Levi, Tuchmann, and Turner should be considered equivalents in the Y-DNA line.

Surname Changes: Mandelbaum to Hopf

In the 1820s Gella Levi, whose name had been changed to Karoline Tuchmann when she was 10 years old, married Loeb Mandelbaum and became Karoline Mandelbaum. In 1833, Loeb changed the family surname from Mandelbaum (almond tree) to Hopf (hops), and Gella Levi / Karoline Tuchmann finished out her life as Karoline Hopf.

Surnames with "Rose" in them:

I collect vintage and heritage roses and i am a perfumer, so i also note that this stammbaum showcases the "Rosey" portion of my heritage, as it contains the surnames Roesel, Rosel, Rosenbaum, Rosenblatt, Rosenfeld, Rosenstein, Rosenstock, and Rosenwald.

2) Stammbaum of the Kohn Family missing first page, typescript, 13 pages remaining, containing the records of 191 marriages that produced offspring, but lacking marriages #1 through #8, which were on the first page. The birth dates remaining range from 1816 through 1935.

The author of this work is unknown to me. I acquired it through my grandmother, Ida Kohn Erlanger.

I have been able to partially reconstruct the missing first page of this family tree by tracing the line numbers of the people on pages 2 - 4 backwards and thereby deriving the names of the members of the first 8 sibling-groups of children who wed and reproduced, but their birth and death dates and their parents' names and data are currently lost. Since my copy of this stammbaum was photocopied from a typewritten carbon copy, i am hoping that a more complete version of it, including the pre-1816 marriage and birth records of the Kohn, Hirsh, Arnstein, Loewi, and Berlin families, is still in existence among other family members, and that they will share it with me.

Since i do not have the title of this stammbaum, i will call it "Stammbaum of the families Kohn, Arnstein, Tauber, Hirsch, and Loewi." The 129 Kohn-Hirsch-Arnstein-Tauber-Loewi Surnames include:

Arany, Arnstein, Baecker, Bauer, Bendit, Berlin, Beutel, Biber, Brandl, Bruell, Brull, Buday, Busch, Cahn, Davidson, Davies, Dettelsbach, Donath, Dreyfuss, Engerer, Epstein, Erdmann, Erlanger, Erlenbach, Ettlinger, Feigl, Feust, Foertsch-Fortsch, Frank, Frankenau, Friedericks, Frowenfield-(Frauenfeld), Funk, Geertz, Geiershoefer-Geiershofer, Gmeiner, Graefe, Gugenheim, Gutmann, Hahn, Hartmann, Hausmeister, Heinsheimer, Hermann, Herrnheiser, Hertzka, Herz, Hessberg, Hesselberger, Hess, Hesz, Hirsch, Hochberger, Holzinger, Hummel, Jaffe, Jeremias, Josephthal, Kann, Karasek, Kassel, Kaufmann, Keracek, Kiefer, Kitzler, Klein, Kleinberg, Kohn, Konig, Konstein, Koreff, Krackenberger, Lang, Lange, Lemberger, Loewi, Lowensberg, Lowenthal, Lublicki, Maas, Maur, Meier, Meier-Graefe, Metzger, Mohr, Moschkowitz, Nathan, Nordlinger, Obermeyer, Oberndorfer, Oppenheimmer, Orbach, Ottenstein, Pabeschutz, Prager, Rapaport, Regensteiner, Reinhardt, Reis, Reiser, Reizenstein, Remlein, Rinskopf-(Rink), Rink-(Rinskopf), Rosenfeld, Rosenthal, Ruhl, Ruprecht, Sandner, Scechy, Scheid, Scheyer, Schlesinger, Schopflocher, Schuller, Schuster, Sgalitzer, Silberschmidt, Simon, Sinaiberger, Spitzer, Steinberg, Sternheimer, Strauss, Tauber, Tausig, Tuchmann, Weissberger, Wiener, Willstatter, Wimpfheimer, Wolf, Wolfsohn

Again we see the genetic family mix of bankers such as the Kohns; lawyers and judges, some of them in Prague and Cologne; and writers, most notably Julius Meier-Graefe (June 10, 1867 - June 5, 1935), the art critic, magazine publisher, and novelist.

Note that due to cousin marriages, this family tree also shws descent from the female Dormitzer / Frauenfeld lineage and contains many individuals with h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA.

3) "Family Tree Kohn," 8 pages typsescript, containing the records of six generations of the Kohn family, compiled by my grandmother Ida Kohn Erlanger, my aunt Renata Erlanger Wolff, and my uncle Ernst Wolff. This is primarily an attempt to continue the previous two genealogical works into the post World War Two era, when the family dispersed widely around the world as a result of the Shoah. Because the Tuchmann and Kohn families were heavily intermarried with multiple cross-overs and cousin marriages, this Kohn family tree incorporates portions of both of the above two stammbaum records. It begins, as does the Tuchmann stammbaum, with Joseph Engelmann and Heindel (Babette) [Unknown], and the earliest birth date recorded is their son Mordechai Josef Levi (later known as Marx Tuchman), 1774. The latest birth date is 1971, my daughter's birth, and this family tree was given to me as a present around the time she was born. My copy has many hand-written additions. The 28 Kohn-Engelmann-Levi Surnames include:

Banucci, Buckman, Buday, Chance, Collett, Comer, Engelmann, Erlanger, Frauenfeld, Geyari-(Loewenthal-Lowenthal), Glozer-Goldstein-Glover), Hopf, Kohn, Lang, Lebrecht, Levi, Loewenthal-Lowenthal, Lowensberg-Loewensberg, Mandelbaum, Manfredi, Mueller-Herring, Oberndorfer, Reizenstein, Sachs, Travers, Tuchmann, Weil, Wolff, Yronwode-(Manfredi)

Again due to cousin marriages this family tree also shws descent from the female Dormitzer / Frauenfeld lineage and contains many individuals with h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA.

Adler, Aron-(Andrews), Banucci, Berges, Birgstein, Burt, Clausen, Comer, Cotton, Eisemann, Elsberg, Erlanger, Geiger, Gilman, Glozer-(Goldstein-Glover), Goldberg, Hampton, Henshaw, Hess, Hesz, Heymann, Hirsch, Kornblum-(Kidron), Krueger, Laub, Loewlerin, Luginbuehl, Manfredi, Matthys, Meiraw, Paskin-(Pesachovich-Yronwode), Pettys, Porat, Raphael, Rosenfeld, Rosenthal, Siesel, Simons, Stark, Stern, Stover, van Cleef, Warschawski, Wolff, Yu, Zurer

5) "SternMail: This is a 117 page downloadable pdf of members of the Stern and Lobl families online, and many (but not all) of the people listed in my family stammbaums are also on the SternMail list. These folks are obviously kin. They are based in England. The URL is

http://sternmail.co.uk/genealogy/index.html

The "SternMail" site is password protected and one must personally apply to be granted access. For this reason i have not felt is proper to copy the material here, although i personally feel that genealogical records should be open to the public.

This tree interlinks to other sites in which it is claimed, with a fair degree of certainty, that we have descent from some prominent rabbis of the past and thus from their Biblical ancestors. I don't want to get into all that here, okay? I mean, if you are related, you've heard it all before, and if you are not related, you either won't care or you won't believe it. But, suffice it to say, at the "SternMail" site, again due to cousin marriages, we again see descent from the female Dormitzer / Frauenfeld lineage that contains many individuals with h6a1a1a mitochondrial DNA.

6) "The Engelmanns of Floss"

=====

Using information supplied by Kitty Munson Cooper:

Nr. 32 "Das Marumhaus"

1814 besass Marum Joseph (Engelmann) (1785/8 - 1857) ein ganzes Haus. Zu dem Wohnhaus mit Schupfe, Stall, und Hof erwarb er einen Garten und 1831 einen neue Stadel fuer 250 Gulden von Stephan Schieder. Sein Vater Joseph Marum (Engelmann (1744 - 1820) hat die Haefte des hauses, das er von seinem Vater Maron Eisig erhalten hat, vermutlich an seinen Bruder verkauft oder abgetretan, siehe Nr. 33.

Am 13.7.1855 uebergab Marum Joseph Engelmann sein Anwesen, zu dem er vier Felder erworben hatte, fuer 1,000 Gulden an seinen Sohn Jesias Engelmann (1819 - 1886), der es am 3.12.1885 an seine Tochter Lina Steinacher in Nuernberg weitervererbte.

Lina Steinacher verkaufte das Anwesen am 22.12.1885 fuer 10,000 M an Abraham Hirsch Bloch in Floss. Nach dem Tod des Abraham H. Bloch 1887 erbten seine fuenf kinder dieses Anwesen (siehe auch Nr. 12, 19), das am 30.11.1894 fuer 8,600 M an Michael Koller von Floss verausert wourde.

Nr. 33 "Beim Marum"

Vor 1736 erwarb Maron Eisig das haus des Hirschl Moyses fuer 500 Gulden.

1738 erwarb er ein zweites Haus, ein buergerliches Haus von Johann Georg Niessler fuer 260 Gulden, das jedoch nur einen tatsaechlichen Wert von 130 Gulden hatte.

=====

This is my free translation, arranged in chronological order, with additional notes from other sources, such as Geni and JewishGen:

Prior to 1736, Maron Eisig (Marum Isaac), born c. 1715 and then 21 years old, acquired the house of Hirschl Moyses for 500 guilders.

The name Marum (Marom) is Hebrew for "from the peak" and can signify "highly placed" or "highly valued."

In 1738, at the age of 23, Maron Eisig acquired a second house, a middle-class house, from Johann Georg Niesler for 260 guilders, which only had an actual value of 130 guilders.

At the time, Jews were not allowed to marry in Floss until they were 28 years old. In 1744, Maron Eisig was 29 years old when he and his wife [whose name is name unknown] had a son, Joseph Marum Engelmann. Maron was 39 years old when their second son Bumfit Benedikt Isaac Engelmann, was born in 1854.

Maron's death date is unknown, but he had to be alive at least until 1754 when his youngest son Bumfit / Benedikt Eisig / Isaac Engelmann (abt. 1754 - aft. 1813) was born.

Joseph Marum (Engelmann) (1744 - 1820), probably sold or sold off the second house, which he had received from his father Maron Eisig, to his brother, Benedikt, for the record seems to be telling us that one of Maron's two houses "probably" passed to the family of Benedikt Isaac or was "sold off" and the other house passed to the family of Joseph Marum Engelmann and thence to his son Marum Joseph Engelmann.

Joseph Marum (Engelmann) married Huendl (Heindel) "Babette" [surname unknown] Engelmann. They had one son and two daughters,

Joseph's occupations were listed as "Foreign. Wool, with which he usually also handles the domestic product. Cloth and stuff maker. gn. [??? - genossenshaft (commercial cooperative ???)] concession on domestic iron trade."

In 1814, Joseph Marum Engelmann's son Marum Joseph Engelmann (1785/8 - 1857), then 29 years old, owned an entire dwelling house with shed, stable, and yard.

Marum Joseph Engelmann was married to Edel Steinhardt Engelmann.

Marum Joseph Engelmann acquired an additional garden plot and in 1831, when he was 46 years old, a new barn from Stephan Schieder, for 250 guilders.

On July 13, 1855, Marum Joseph Engelmann, then 70 years old, handed over his estate, for which he had acquired four fields, for 1,000 guilders to his son Jesias (Josiah) Scheyer Engelmann (1819 - 1886),who was 36 years old at the time.

Jesias (Josiah) Scheyer Engelmann was married to Esther Jette Steinhardt Engelmann.

Jesias's wife Esther Jette Steinhardt was the neice of his mother, Edel Steinhardt: Edel was Esther's aunt (her father's sister); thus Jesaias and Esther were first cousins.

On December 3, 1885, Jesias Scheyer Engelmann, 69 years old, passed the estate on to his daughter Lina Englemann Steinacher (1857 - 1919) who lived in Nuremberg; she was 28 years old at the time.

19 days later, on December 22, 1885, Lina Englemann Steinacher sold the property for 10,000 marks to Abraham Hirsch Bloch in Floss. The property had stayed in the family for about 150 years, through five generations -- c. 1735 - 1885.

After the death of Abraham H. Bloch in 1887, his five children inherited this estate (see also No. 12, 19), which was auctioned on November 30, 1894 for 8,600 marks to Michael Koller of Floss.

As i said, i do hope to get all of my typsecript data digitized and uploaded eventually, but in the meantime, here is a swath of my family tree that i found online. This document covers births from 1754 through 1989, with a few additional undated births probably occurring in the 1990s. A section of it corresponds exactly to a small part of the circa 1927 Tuchmann stammbaum that i have in my possession. In most cases i have birth and death place-names that this list lacks; in some cases this list has death dates that my records lack, or vice versa. The 177 Kohn-Steinhardt Surnames include:

Alkan, Altbaier , Altshuler, Ansbacher, Baumgartel, Bethe, Beyer, Bing, Bloch, Bomeisler, Borovich, Boskowitz, Brown, Bruell , Brull, Buchman, Buchmann, Buchstein, Carry, Carter, Chacona , Chens, Cukier, Czekau, Davis, Desperack, Diamand, Dunau, Eisemann, Engelmann, Englaender, Erlanger, Feis, Fernich , Fleischmann, Flynn, Fraenkel, Frank, Frankel, Freund, Freundlich, Friedmann, Frueh, Gage, Gans, Goldschmidt, Goldsmith, Goldstein, Guldmann, Gumpel, Haas, Hahn, Hamburger, Hansens, Hartmann, Hechinger, Hermann, Herz, Hirschhorn, Hoenigsberger, Holmes, Holzinger, Homberg, Hopf, Hunter, Kahn, Kalen, Kapauner, Kern, Kimball, Klauber, Knisely, Koch, Kocherthaler, Kohn, Krailsheimer, Krakenberger, Kulp, Lang, Langermann, Laude, Lauinger, Lekisch, Lessing, Levy, Lindner, Lion, Livingston, Lopes, Luftig, Mandelbaum, Marcus, Marks, Marx, May, Mayer, McCloud, Menz, Meyerfeld, Militzer, Moses, Munson, Myers, Naumueller, Neuman, Neumark, Neumeyer, Neustadter, Newgarden, Newman, Noe , Obermeyer, Oppenheimer, Page, Pakusch, Peterson, Purdy, Rawitsch, Reichenberger, Reitberger, Riexinger, Rochkind, Rollmann, Rosenbaum, Rosenberg, Rosenfeld, Rosenthal, Sachs, Salomon, Sauter, Schiff, Schleckt, Schlossmann, Schluesselblum, Schneck, Schumann, Schwartz, Seelenberger, Senger, Sherman, Sinauer, Smith, Spirs, Steinacher, Steinhardt, Stern, Stockheim, Struntz, Strupp, Sturm, Sulzbach, Superson, Thannhauser, Thulborn, Thurnauer, Tolep, Tuchmann, Von-Seidlein, Wallach, Walter, Wechner, Weil, Weinreb, Weiss, Weldler, Werblonsky, Wertheimer, Wiener, Wilmers, Wilmersdoerfer, Wirtz, Wohl, Wolfsohn, Wood, Worms, Wujnovich, Zeilberger, Zimmer

I have marked the section that duplicates a portion from my 21 page family tree titled "Stammbaum & Chronik der Familie Tuchmann" in RED and i have added the data-numbers of marriages from my Tuchmann stammbaum in BLUE for ease of correlation between the two family trees.

And so, here are ...
