Notes

may have been born in Lehrensteinsfeld; received schutz in Binswangen in 1655; aided the German army in Neckarsulm with money during the Thirty's Years War; By 1655 either Benjamin or Abraham occupied their father's house, the other brother built his own house. They all paid an annual fee of 10 gulden to the Binswangen community. By 1668 Benjamin is the only remaining Jew in Binswangen. In 1669 he appealed to be taken by the community in Neckarsulm. Due to his apparently strong financial influence (as a money lender?) he was accepted and moved in 1671 to Neckarsulm. He purchased a house in 1676 from Peter Heilmann. (All from Angerbauer and Frank: "Juedische Gemeinden in Kreis und Stadt Heilbronn") [1]
