Can't help you with Silberstein, but I do
have Poznanski from Lodz.
My aunt was a Poznanski from there
who became Posner / Pozner in NYC.
Shall we discuss further.

descendants of Lodz
industrialist Markus SILBERSTEIN (1833-1899) #advice
Dear group
I am trying to identify and then get in touch with the descendants
of the well known Lodz
industrialist Markus SILBERSTEIN (1833-1899). Would anyone in the group
be able to please recommend any resources or approaches?
I have contacted a JewishGen researcher via the Family Tree of Jewish
People (FTJP) and done some internet searching but have not been able to
identify any contemporary pathway to connect with anyone – I’ve only been
able to find historical information.
The parents of Markus were Joachim SILBERSTEIN/ZYLBERSZTEJN and Adela
GLIKSMAN. Their siblings also married - Ruchla ZYLBERSZTEJN (the
sister of Joachim) married Dawid GLIKSMAN (the brother of Adela). I am a
descendant of that other marriage and so the four grandparents of Markus
SILBERSTEIN are also my direct ancestors.
As Markus SILBERSTEIN and his wife Teresa COHN were a wealthy
well-known family, and as there seems to be information and photos of them and
their children which are find-able on the internet, I am (optimistically)
hoping that there are some descendants living who may be in possession of
family archives in which there may be some photos of the parents or even
grandparents of Markus and maybe even some other family photos that include his
aunt (my gggm) Ruchla.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
Kind regards
