Mergentheim Siegel NHKatzenellenbogen.jpg (47919 Byte)Rabbi Jakob Pinchas Katzenellenbogen and his son Pinchas Jakob managed the Oettingen Rabbinate over a period of ninety years. For hundreds of years the Rabbinates in Oettingen and Wallerstein had served the religious needs of the jewish communities in the County of Oettingen, ruled by its Counts and Princes. Both Rabbinates even kept their importance through the 19th century, only suffering from a decline of  jewish population when younger families moved to the big cities or emigrated to North America. So the death of Pinchas Jakob Katzenellenbogen also marked the end of the Oettingen Rabbinate, as it became part of the Wallerstein Rabbinate for a few years, until both Rabbinates were taken over by the Rabbinate in Ichenhausen.  
       
Another person of high interest in the Katzenellenbogen Chart is Lazare Isidor. He was Chief Rabbi of France and was buried at Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. His impressing grave monument was donated by the Jewry of France. The grave is hard to find, but it's pretty close to the one of famous 19th century actress Rachel Felix, and most people know where her grave is.

bandshell.jpg (25315 Byte)Samuel Naumburg (hazzan in Paris) was one of the important composers of Reform Judaism during the 19th century and has been often compared with Lewandowski in Berlin and Sulzer in Vienna. He was born in Dennenlohe (Franconia), where his father was one of the jewish musicians, who were famous for offering top quality at cheap price. Samuel Naumburg's grave at Montmartre Cemetery in Paris has vanished. Another member of the Naumburg family was likewise engaged in musical activities. Samuel's cousin Elkan Naumburg became a banker in New York and supported musical activities there. The bandshell at Central Park (foto) was donated by him and has been used since then for various cultural activities.

Weisskopf Chart Comment

David Weisskopf and his son-in-law Marx Michael Kohn were the last Rabbis of the Wallerstein Rabbinate in Northern Swabia. They developed once again flourishing activities and even took over the Oettingen Rabbinate when it became vacant around 1857. But as the rural jewish popoulation declined, the jewish communities in this part of Bavaria were taken over by the Ichenhausen Rabbinate after Marx Michael Kohn had died in 1888. In the meantime David Weisskopf''s son had become a Rabbi for a small orthodox community in Paris and stayed in this position until he died at high age of one hundred years. His grave at Montmartre Cemetery is very modest and contains further members of the family, the headstone inscriptions are nearly illegible. Another interesting aspect of the Weisskopf Chart is the the fact that Rabbi David Weisskopf's aunt was Rabbi Moses Wassermann's mother. So these two important Rabbis of Southern Germany were in fact cousins.  
   
 
     
     
d) Informationen zum Stammbaum der Familie "Salamander"-Levi in Stuttgart/Kornwestheim

The Salamander Story began in 1891, when the jewish leather merchant Max Levi of Stuttgart founded a Shoe Manufactoring Company in Kornwestheim (near Stuttgart in Southern Germany), together with the christian master shoe maker Jakob Sigle. In 1903 they started a joint venture with the shoe dealer Rudolf Moos in Berlin, who was in search of producers of excellent and cheap shoes in large quantities. This was the start of the Salamander Shoe Manufactoring Company. Within twenty years it became the biggest shoe company in Germany, exclusively selling shoes in its own shops all over Germany. All of Max Levi's brothers (except Morris) and his Rothschild brother-in-laws participated in this shoe and leather business. When Max Levi died in 1925 he had just finished building his new family home, which in fact looked more like a castle. He also had financial problems, as he had acquired other shoe factories, and things had run out of control. His brother Sem Levi took care of the Salamander business in Berlin, his brother Siegfried Levi went on with the main business together with Arthur Levi and members of the Rothschild and Sigle family. Besides that Siegfried Levi had an amazing hobby: he had bought Stettenfels Castle near Heilbronn and was breeding horses for the Hoppegarten Race Track in Berlin. When Adolf Hitler came to power only Siegfried Levi and his brother Arthur were still alive. Under pressure of Nazi authorities they had to sell their Salamander shares and other personal properties and finally managed to escape to the USA and South Africa. Max Levi's widow emigrated to Switzerland. The Salamander Company was further successfull after World War II, but during the following decades a decline of profits occurred due to increasing wages. Labour in Eastern Europe and Asia became much cheaper and Salamander had to close factories in Germany. Around the year 2000 there was not much left of once glorious shoe enterprise. The Villa of Max Levi in Stuttgart survived under the city's ownership and still reminds of the ups and downs of a Shoe Empire that once was unique in Germany. The Salamander brand is still well known in Germany, but only very few people really know of the jewish aspect of this amazing story.
