Rabbi Isaac Juda Offenbach

Jaques Offenbach's father, born Isaac Eberst in Offenbach am Main around 1780. He took the name Offenbach due to the Napoleonic edict of 1807 after marrying and taking a job as a cantor in Cologne, Germany. He renamed the family after his hometown, Offenbach, Germany.

He was a man of many talents who worked as a bookbinder, translator, publisher, music teacher and composer.

Isaac became a cantor some 30 years later, and himself wrote several works, including a well known Haggadah (Passover home service). In 1816 the family moved to Cologne, where his son Jacob (changed to Jacques when he arrived to study in Paris) was born in 1819.
