Dear Profile Managers,

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!

Leiser Kann (1783 - 1839) married Regina Ackerman. Their son Josef named his son Leiser (1844 - 1909) married Rosa Steinhardt.

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.
