The Riesz brothers - Renown Hungarian Jewish Mathematicians from Gyor

Hi:

I am related but only by marriage to:

Regina Riesz
1857–1940

BIRTH 26 DEC 1857 • Pest, Pest-Pilis-Solt-Kis-Kun, Hungary
DEATH 1940 • Budapest, Hungary
mother-in-law of 1st cousin 3x removed

Regina married:

Samuel Gluck
1847–1911

BIRTH 1847 • Miskolc, Borsod-Abauj-Zemplen, Hungary
DEATH 4 OCT 1911 • Budapest, Hungary
father-in-law of 1st cousin 3x removed

and had at least 2 children:

Tibor

and

Szerena

who married

Imre Meir Wahrmann
1868–1956

BIRTH 8 SEP 1868 • Pest-Pilis-Solt-Kiskun, Hungary
DEATH 22 NOV 1956 • District XVI, Budapest, Hungary
1st cousin 3x removed

whom I am related to as my father changed his family name of Wahrmann to Warman when he emigrated post WW2 to Sydney.

I am not sure if this Riesz family is related to those from Gyor.

Around the mid-1850s, it was common for Jews from small towns to move to Budapest and Vienna.

If per chance they are part of the same Riesz family unit, then I have a Public Family Tree on Ancestry DNA under "Warman Family Tree".

Hi

Thanks for getting in touch

I am not sure if I am related to Regina Riesz but there is a also a chance we are somehow indirectly related through your Samuel Gluck connection. My grandfather Kornel Riesz married Anna Schwimmer who is related to some Glucks through her mother's family the Picks one of which married a Rosenfeld . These Glucks changed their name to Gábor. Quite complicated.

I can invite you access my Geni family tree if you are interested.

Would like to look at your Warman Family Tree through the Ancestry Public family tree but have no idea how that works.

I gather that prior to about the 1860's the Jews in Hungary were mainly restricted to certain towns where they seem to have been more concentrated. With my relatives I have noted a move to Budapest from about that time.

My father migrated to Australia in 1940 as a young man and his mother who was a widow followed in 1948. Her husband died young in 1926 from Kidney failure.

Edward,

So, were you born in Australia?

If so, Sydney or Melbourne?

I grew up in Rose Bay/Bellevue Hill suburbs of Sydney but left for the USA in 1983.

My father emigrated to Sydney in 1948 at the age of 18 having been born in Budapest but living in Paris from 1946-8.

An uncle, Perl Tibor, emigrated in the 1930s, and the family thought he was crazy at the time, and he was able to sponsor surviving family members as the wait for entry to the USA was long.

If you provide me an email address, I can send you an invite via Ancestry DNA, that provides you a direct link to my work in progress Family Tree, including being able to see all Living Family members which is not the default viewing mode for Ancestry.

I don't have any family members with the surnames you have mentioned, just through marriage:

As with Gluck, the same applies for Rosenfeld, Gabor, Pick but no matches for Schwimmer.

I would be interested in looking at your Family Tree on Geni.
