Prague Familianten

Well done!

I think "A" is missing, Randy. Or it is buried in the wrong order. I tried to find it a few months ago, but could never locate it.

Thanks for doing this!

Huh, Bunzels ??

Löwenfeld /Wollmann/Jaffe ?

Thank you for your work and patience.

First part of letter A missing? Just my luck! Regards to all, Michael Adler.

Worked some more and am through page 50.

@ Randy Schoenberg. Thanks, Randy, for the wonderful work you are doing!

Wow! Incredible. Are all the Bunzels connected? How were the profiles added to the tree, connected with questioned profiles, or only those connected.

I have a theory that the Bunzels changed the name in poland to bumzel or baumsel. Any thoughts?

"Bumzel"? I would hope they might have been advised against this, because lots of Poles spoke German and the name might lend itself to confusion with the German word "bumsen".

The idea being that the town of Jungbunzlau went under different names.

Mladá Boleslav [Cz], Jungbunzlau [Ger], Bumsla [Yid], Mlada Boleslaz --re jewishgen.

The families living in the town took the name Bunzlau or Bunzl. It seems to me very likely that were they to move to a region where yiddish was a primary language, they would adopt a spelling congruous with their spoken tongue. Thus, Bumslau or Baumsel.

Would you agree?
