*People with asterisks after their names were married two or more times. They have a separate line for each spouse.
The name MÜHSAM was originally taken by Pinkus MÜHSAM, formerly Pinkus PAPPENHEIM, as described HERE. After Pinkus’ heroic actions during the battle of Leuthen and his fight to be able to live in the town of Pitschen, the King honored him by given him the name MÜHSAM, because of his efforts (“Mühe”).
Pinkus’ daughter, Charlotte, married Abraham SITTENFELD, and they had a son, Pinkus, named after his grandfather. When Abraham SITTENFELD died, Charlotte wanted to move back to Pitschen (see MAP), but couldn’t get permission from the town. She then began using her father’s name of MÜHSAM for herself and her son, instead of SITTENFELD. Because of the position her father had had in Pitschen, she and her son, also named Pinkus, were able to return to Pitschen. She was later remarried to Michael RECHNITZ, but her son continued to use the name MÜHSAM, and that is the name that his descendants went by.
