you seem to have used the wrong category since I cannot find a connection to Horneburg in Westphalen for this profile. You were probably confusing Jewish Roots category with Jewish Roots, Horneburg, Nordrhein-Westfalen One Place Study category.
Please let me know if my category should be named differently.
Warm regards!
Another son of Leiser Kann (1783 - 1839) called Schmuel(1813 - ) married Sibilia Heinman and also called their son Leiser, also born in 1844. This has caused a lot of confusion over the years.
