Hello Will Wachtel,
I am Renee Wachtel from Holland.Was your grandfather the Henry Isaac Wachtel from New York who wrote "Random notes on Rzessow"??? It's about the history of the jews in Rzeszow.
The grandfather of my husband was Norbert Wachtel,born in Rzeszow 12-10-1854.Norbert Wachtel married Fanny Kleinmann,born 10-10-1855 in Mieleoz Galicie (was Austria,later Poland)I know 3 of their kids,but I think there were more children.
1)Hansi Wachtel,married Jozef Horowitz,they had 2 children Alfred and Else Horowith,They lived for a while in Antwerpen Belgium (around 1910 I think)
2)Henry Wachtel,born 9-4-1881 Rzessow He married Malvina Kugel from Wien Austria.I know they had a son,born in Scheveningen Holland (near the Hague) and his name was Norbert
3)Leon Wachtel born 1-8-1885 in Rzessow.He married Jeanette Rothenberg, born 30-9-1890 Lemberg
They lived for a while in Brussel around 1914-1917 and later in Holland They had 4 children Salomon (1914-2000),Marcel George ( 1915-1971),Ruth Pepi (1919-1942) and Laura (1928-1942)These 2 girls and their mother Jeanette died in Auswitz
