One comment though.<br />You write toward the end that Isak Josef and Isak Fischel cannot be father/son or grandson because they share a given name. That's likely to be true for father/son, but the opposite is likely for grandfather/grandson. If the grandfather died before the grandson was born, there is a high likelihood that they would share a name. Perhaps you know that they were contemporaries, which makes it less likely. But there are no hard and fast rules for naming children. Various communities and families have different traditions, and anyone might break a tradition. Some people have enough of an ego that they name their sons after themselves. You can never categorically rule that out.Elanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975749461749444767noreply@blogger.com
