From Singer-Hamburger Stammbaum: “Schloime Tesche had a daughter, Jittele, who became a widow at a young age. It was impossible to determine the name of her first husband and that of the daughter from this marriage. According to an untrusted tradition, the latter is said to have married in Leipnik. Father Schloime decided to marry his daughter Jittele a second time and, since he wanted a pious and learned man to be a difficult son, he turned to the most famous Talmud school in Germany at the time, in Prague with the request to refer him to such a qualified Bocher (student) . From there, a certain Mordechai (Motche, Markus) from Altona near Hamburg was proposed to him. He was born in Germany may have brought the family name ‘Singer’ with him, since the Jews there adopted family names earlier than in the Habsburg hereditary countries.”
