The "respected and distinguished man", on Marx's tombstone is not meant to imply that he was a rich man, but that he had been a community leader. ‐ ‐

Moritz Tuchmann adds:

"As an addendum, I would like to mention that very little is known about my parents' relatives, but I still want to catch up on a few things. My father had a stepbrother in Baiersdorf, named Chajim Bär Bärmann, and a cousin named Josef Bärmann. Both poor and unimportant people. My father often supported the latter, Josef Bärmann, as soon as I personally convinced myself that he was a more learned and pious man than a businessman. - My mother had a brother Marum Engelmann in Floß, whose son Josef studied as a doctor and later became a councilor and doctor in the lunatic asylum in Bayreuth. A second son Salomon went to America and the third son Marum Josef was a hop dealer in Floß. My mother also had 2 sisters. One named Gitel was married to the teacher Isaak Lindner in Markt Erlbach, whose sons, Abraham, died as a teacher in Würzburg and Max lived as an important man and German consul in Birmingham England. My mother's second sister, Itel, Jette, was unhappily married to a man named Rau in Baiersdorf. I was never in Baiersdorf without there having been disgusting arguments and quarrels between these married couples. My mother's younger brother, Bernhard Engelmann, lives in Wilmington (America), but as a poor man he also has to be supported by relatives."

These remarks are to be added in addition:

Regarding the descent of Marx Tuchmann, there are differences of opinion, according to which he was an illegitimate son, or descended from a Christian, etc. I would like to oppose this assumption most decidedly: Marx Tuchmann was the head of the community in Ühlfeld, which at the time was a stately and fairly wealthy Jewish Community. Now it cannot be assumed that this congregation would have taken a man to its head whose ancestry would not have been entirely clear, even if he had soared up. Even with his marriage to Miriam Engelmann, who came from a very respected family, this consideration should have played a decisive role. With the addendum to the chronicle of Mr. Moritz Tuchmann one can get an approximate idea of the genealogy of Marx Tuchmann. I have arranged the matter as follows; Chajim Bär Bärmann and his stepbrother Marx Josef Tuchmann come from their father's two marriages. From the names of the two sons one can perhaps construct the name of the father according to the naming of the time as Josef Bär or Bär Josef. This Josef Bär brother's son was Josef Bärmann mentioned in the above addendum (born in 1795, died in 1844). So Josef Bär married twice. Chajim Bär Bärmann comes from the first marriage (born in 1760, died in 1827). After the death of the first wife, Josef Bär married again. From this marriage comes Mordochai Josef Tuchmann, after whose birth the father Josef Bär soon died. The second wife of Josef Bär held nothing back in Baiersdorf, since her stepson Chajim was already 14 years old and was probably an apprentice at the time. Perhaps she came from Ühlfeld and so she carried her little son Marx there and married again there, as the above letter shows. So I come to the following genealogy:

Bar Josef X in first marriage	in second marriage with x,	these X in 2nd marriage
Son:	Son:	Son:
Chajim Bär Bärmann	Mordochai Josef Tuchmann	Cheskel Kohn

Unfortunately, I did not succeed in confirming my assumption, as all clues have been lost in Baiersdorf and Ühlfeld. I did not find the gravestone of Josef Bär in Baiersdorf; there is no register of graves there; the Baiersdorf register does not begin until 1814. I have also not found any clues in the relevant archives. It was only by chance, or if a grave directory of the Ühlfeld and Baiersdorf cemetery were included, that my assumptions could be confirmed.
