Chris Boonzaier Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I am researching an Imperial officer who left goverment employ in 1934... His name was mensch.Does anyone know if this is usually a Jewish name in Germany?Googling the name comes up with millions of unrelated hits.ThanksChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naxos Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 don't think so - if you check here: http://gedbas.genealogy.net/suchen.jsp?nachname=Mensch you notice that most of them were baptized - Hardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 there is a book of jewish participants in the great War -@ 148,000 names or so. i think Dave Danner has a link to it somewhere earlier.(Or my memory is faulty-only Jewish war dead?).

Guest Rick Research Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Chris-- my WW1 reserve Oberleutnant Lautenschlager was chucked out of the Bavarian civil service at the same time and he was Protestant and later recalled as a Major dR zV during the war.Could have been purely political, or a wife who was the "problem" or just refused to swear the oath to Hitler....
