Hello GerSig,
I just joined the group. I have been doing genealogy research for
several years. I consider myself to be intermediate in doing German
Jewish Genealogy research. I live in a small town 25 miles northeast
of Frankfurt/Main, Hesse, Germany.
My native language is german, but I can also write and read english
and french (not very well). I have been working with computers & the
internet for more than thirty years, and I use the internet daily and
extensivly.
My surname is SCHINDEL; most of my descendant family are protestant.
But I have found out that there are quite a lot of Jewish families
with the surname SCHINDEL, mostly in eastern Europe. I am trying to
find out if there is a relationship between these families.

At the moment I am interested in every bit of information on Mendel
Menachem SCHINDEL, born 13.06.1896 in Glogow Malopolski, Rzeszow,
Galicia. He lived in Frankfurt >from at least 1934 and seems to have
been a merchant. He ist mentioned in some of the Frankfurt Adress
books. He was deported to Minsk on the 11./12.11.1941 and probably
murdered there. With him was his wife Dora SCHINDEL neee WEISS
(*03.06.1893, Kolbuszowa, Galicia).
