History of the Jews in Neuern, Josef Blau, Neuern (1907) via http://www.porges.net/JewishHistoryOfNeuern.html: "In 1790 Samuel Abraham Janowitzer closed a "firm contract in wool and feather trade" with his two sons Wolf and Abraham for six years. The company was named Samuel Janowitzer and Sons. (…) This trade company which worked with – for this period – extraordinary means and business connections that spanned a major part of Bohemia, later changed its name to “Janowitzer, Porges & Co”, and later again to “Janowitzer & Fleischl”. (…) The present owner, Mr. Alexander Fleischl, is also Royal Danish consul" [published 1907]

He was cited as the Danish Consul General at Budapest in The American Hebrew & Jewish Messenger, August 6, 1920, page 302.

How much Jews who emigrated from Neuern were attached to their old home and how they still felt as members of their families – even after many decades – shows in a letter written in 1928 by Mr. Alexander Fleischl, royal Danish consul in Budapest, on the occasion of the erection of a war memorial to his Neuerner fellow countrymen: "Although many decades have passed since I, as a Child, left with my parents (…) the old home, the sense of belonging is not extinguished in me. And even when it is not granted to me to visit the place in person, in which my family lived for decades, every time the name Neuern is mentioned I feel that (…) one has his roots where oneself, one's father and one's grandfather were born.” --History of the Jews in Neuern, edited by teacher Josef Blau, Neuern; translation by Gisela Porges (Vienna, Austria) [http://www.porges.net/JewishHistoryOfNeuern.html]
