Hi everyone!

I am new to this forum, so sorry if its not written properly.

I am looking for information on my great gandfather Isak Schachner (Szachner) from Jordanow and his family.

Isak Schachner had a store in Jordanow that sold farming machines and tools (SKEAD MASZYN).
He is listed in the 1929 Polish Business Directory as Isak Szachner, Maszyny, rolnicze (machines agricoles): Schachner I.

Only his son Oscar (Ozjasz) Schachner survived the war and emigrated to America.

Thanks,

Shloimie

According to a previous census there was only one person named Szachner (the Polish spelling) and he/she was living in the Skierniewice area SW of Warsaw. Jewish genealogical queries should be directed to: familyheritage@jhi.pl

BTW the type of business was a SK£AD MASZYN (machinery depot). The Polish letter '£' often gets mistaken by foreigners for a T, K, X or (in this case) E, especially when handwritten..

I don't think it's a Jewish genealogical question.
Because of his business, Isak Schachner had many dealing with other companys.

According to a previous census

Which Census?
