The Brzezinka Steuer Branch


Bernhard Steuer, son of Samuel and Eva (Fraenkel) Steuer lived in Zabrze County, a city in southern Poland, in the Silesian Province, Zabrze County. It is located 22 km northwest of Katowice and 304 km southwest of Warsaw. It lays on the Silesian Highland, by the Kłodnica River and its tributary, the Bytomka. Samuel was possibly born ca 1794, Upper Silesia (if he was in fact 69 years old at the time of his death on 27 Apr 1863) and Eva Fraenkel was born 1804 in Brzezinka and according to her Myslowice death record, she died on 11 Apr 1861 and was 57 years old.


In 1526 Zabrze became part of the Habsburg Monarchy (of Austria), and later annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia during the Silesian Wars. The settlement of Dorotheendorf was founded in 1774. The town became an important mining center after the first mine in Zabrze became operational in 1790. The town's synagogue, which was built in 1872, was destroyed in the Kristallnacht pogroms of November 1938.



Bernhard was an innkeeper (as was his father), restaurateur, and owner of a brick factory. He was born in Brzezinka, Upper Silesia, 17 Dec 1841. The village was first mentioned in 1474. In 1517 the Duke of Cieszyn sold the land around Pszczyna (Pless) to a Hungarian noble, Thurzo (originally from Krakow), thus forming the administrative and territorial division of Pless. Rosalie Wachsner Bielschowsky and her family, as well as Eva Wachsner Nothmann and her family lived in Pless. It’s no wonder that part of the family was in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Samuel’s branch stayed mostly in the same area of Brzezinka.


It is known that Bernhard had three older brothers, Emanuel (born in 1827), Wilhelm (1834)
and Moritz (born in 1837) and an older sister, Friederike (born 28 Oct 1830). I believe that they also had another sister, Rosalie. I haven’t been able to prove it, but since she died at age 24 and Friederike married Rosalie’s husband 7 months later and they named their first born after Rosalie, Moritz named his youngest daughter Rosa and Bernhard also named one of his daughters Rosalie. It was very common back then for a man to marry the sister of his wife after her death instead of looking for a wife from another family. Their mother Eva died 11 Apr 1861, just 15 days after Emanuel’s youngest daughter was born. Both Friederike (Wachsner) and Moritz gave birth to daughters in 1863 and both named them after their mother Eva. Eva Wachsner was born 12 Aug 1863 and her cousin, Eva Steuer was born on 5 Dec 1863. Bernhard named his first born after his mother as well and she was born 29 Oct 1866.

Marriage Record for Bernhard Steuer & Jettel (Henriette) Eisner
Bernhard and Henriette had six children: Eva, Sigfried, Friedeike, Rosalie, Max and Emilie. Eva was born in Brzezinka and that is all that is known about her so far. Sigfried was born 5 Jan 1868, Brzezinka and married Rosa Lachmann. It’s unknown if they had any children. Sigfried died 31 Oct 1907 in Hamburg and is buried at the Judischer Friedhof Ohlsdorf Cemetery; plot A10 Nr. 444a in Ohlsdorf, Hamburg-Nord, Hamburg, Germany. Friederike was born 12 Jun 1869 in Brzezinka and died when she was 4 years 7 months old on 9 Jan 1874.
Friederike Steuer's Death Record
Rosalie was born 24 Aug 1870 in Brzezinka and died when she was just 3 months old on 22 Nov 1870, Brzezinka.
Rosalie Steuer's Death Record
Max (Moshe ben Shmuel) was born 7 Mar 1879, Brzezinka and married Karoline "Lina" Bry on 05 Jul 1911. Max and Lina had three children: Urlich (Dov Ber ben Moshe), Rudolf (Shmuel ben Moshe) and Renata. Max was the Director of Dresdner Bank, Berlin and was still living in Berlin and later in Riga, Latvia. His wife and two younger children emigrated to Sao Paulo, Brazil and his son Urlich and his young family left for the USA 3 weeks before Kristallnacht. On the 26th of October, 1942 Max was deported with Transport 22 from Berlin, Germany to Riga, Rigas, Vidzeme, Latvia. His name was found on the “List of murdered Jews from Germany found in Hall of Names”. Emilie, Bernard and Henriette’s youngest was born 29 Oct 1866 in Brzezinka and died on 30 Jan 1872, Brzezinka when she was 4 months old.

Bernhard Steuer's Death Certificate
Bernhard was only 46 years old when he did on 24 Mar 1887 in Hindenburg Klein-Zabrze, Prussia. His wife Henriette also died in Hindenburg, Zabrze County, Upper Silesia on 10 Nov 1930.



Rosalie would have been born in either 1823 or 1824 according to her death record. This would have made her the oldest of all the known children of Samuel and Eva.


Emanuel Steuer & Friederike Boehm Marriage Record
Bernhard’s brother Emanuel married Friederike Boehm, daughter of Bernhard Boehm & Handel Kamm on 2 July 1851 in Myslowitz. Emanuel was a merchant, trader and later a businessman. Emanuel and Friederike lived in Myslowitz and had five children: Rosemunda (31 Aug 1853), Sarah (3 Mar 1855), Louis (27 Feb 1857), Emilie (22 Oct 1859) and Caecilie born 27 Mar 1861. Louis died 13 Oct 1858 at a year and 7½ months old. Emilie died when she was a year and 3 months old on 21 Jan 1861. Caecilie married Leopold Hamburger of Gleiwitz, son of Moritz & Dorothea Danziger, on 21 Oct 1893.

Eva was Hirschel Zvi’s second wife. Hirschel had eight children with his first wife and three children with Eva. Their daughter Selma married her maternal uncle Heinrich Wachsner. Eva and Hirshel lived in Bierun, Upper Silesia and this where their children were born.

Moritz and Minna had eight children: Wilhelm, Eva, Siegfried, Julius, Albert, Hugo, Margaretha and Rosa. Their first three children were born in Krasowy (Krassow in German) Myslowitz, Silesia. The others were born in Zabrze county – at least two in Bytom (Beuthen in German).
