=============

Translation to English:

The name is derived from the German zum rothen Schild (with the old spelling "th"), meaning "at the red shield", in reference to the house where the family lived for many generations (in those days houses were designated not by numbers but by signs displaying different symbols or colours). A red shield can still be seen at the centre of the Rothschild coat of arms.

He is the father of Moïse died in 1657, Raphaël died in 1686 and probably Alcan Frankfurt died in 1692 in Metz.
