Zysberg Family Genealogy
|
FAMILY ORIGINS The surname Zysberg was pronounced like "Ziss-berg" or like "Zeese-berg". The surname is also spelled Zisberg and Zizberg. Our family originated in Krasik, Poland. My great-great-great-grandmother Tauba Zisberg moved from Krasnik to Chelm, Poland. Her father David Tewel Zysberg (middle name also listed as Fewel) was a money lender and investor in Krasnik. Dawid's father was Izrael Zysberg (born 1785). Izrael's grandfather Tewel is from whom all Zysbergs in Krasnik descend. FAMILY PHOTOS If you have any photos of the family, please let me know. This is a photo of Chana Rifka Wacholder (Wacholda), maiden name Zysberg, from Krasnik:  I have not been able to identify her parents' names. She was probably born around 1860. This is possibly (but unconfirmed) a photo of my ancestor Tauba Zysberg from Krasnik:  KRASNIK, POLAND I created a memorial website for Krasnik. In 1787, Jews made up around 65% of the population of the city, with 2430 Jews living there out of 3800 people. By 1827, the Jewish population was 1961 out of 3530 people. In 1883 there were 7776 residents in Krasnik, including 4,000 Jews. And Krasnik had a Jewish population of more than 5,000 people (800 families) before WWII out of a general population of 15,000 people.
