Other Prague Porges branches 1900–1912 obituaries
|
This page collects four further Porges entries documented from primary obituaries
that do not yet fit into a fully reconstructed sub-clan but each represent a distinct documented branch:
Sophie Glück née Porges (Vinohrady, 1900);
Sophie Schulhof née Porges (Old Town Prague → Brandýs nad Labem, 1912);
Sara Porges née Bondy (1905, confirmed Bondy–Porges alliance);
and Wilhelmine Porges (funeral-time announcement, year unknown).
1. Sophie Glück née Porges – Vinohrady (1900)
Sophie Glück née Porges (b. ca. 1827/28, d. 22/07/1900 Königliche Weinberge / Vinohrady, in her 73rd year, after a prolonged illness).
Residence: Vinohrady, Karlsgasse 3, corner of Záborská
(today an Italská-area address in central Vinohrady, Praha 2).
Buried Strašnice Israelite Cemetery 24/07/1900.
Husband Mr. Glück (predeceased before 1900).
Alfred Glück (son, alive 1900).
Karoline Thein née Glück (daughter) – married Wilhelm Thein.
Ludwig Glück (son).
Daughters-in-law: Lucie Glück, Ottilie Glück.
Sibling named in 1900: Josef Porges, brother. The most economical hypothesis is that this Sophie Glück
and Sofie Redisch née Porges (†1899, see Redisch–Porges New York branch) are sisters
— born one year apart (1827/28 and 1825/26), both Prague-deceased within seven months of each other, both Porges-born.
But Sofie Redisch's 1899 notice names Markus, Julie Stepper and Eva Grün as siblings — not Sophie Glück.
The two are therefore most likely cousins or half-siblings rather than full sisters.
2. Sophie Schulhof née Porges – Brandýs nad Labem burial (1912)
Sophie Schulhof née Porges (b. ca. 1824/25, d. 20/04/1912 in her 88th year).
Residence: Prague Old Town, Castulusgasse 6 (today Haštalská, near St Agnes Convent).
Buried at Brandýs nad Labem (Brandeis an der Elbe) Jewish cemetery, 23/04/1912 at 14:00 –
a striking provincial choice, suggesting ancestral Brandýs origins of either the Schulhof or the Porges family of this branch.
The notice was announced solely by a niece, Wilhelmine Fischer née Gellner, « in the name of all relatives ».
Sophie was apparently childless and her husband Mr. Schulhof predeceased her.
Schulhof ("synagogue courtyard") is a classic Bohemian-Jewish surname.
Pentlarž-Karolinenthal vs Schulhof-Brandýs may signal different sub-clan origins for these
two early-19th-century Porges-born women — a question for further research.
3. Sara Porges née Bondy – confirmation of the Bondy–Porges alliance (1905)
Sara Porges née Bondy (b. ca. 1831/32, d. Prague 21/12/1905, in her 74th year, after a long illness).
Buried 24/12/1905 at the Israelite Mortuary House.
Husband: a Mr. Porges, predeceased before 1905 (identity to be confirmed).
Agnes Porges (the obituary typo « Porias » is a Fraktur compositor's slip; unmarried in 1905).
Eduard Porges (unmarried in 1905).
Emma Löwit née Porges – married Gottlieb Löwit (or Ludwig).
Camilla Löwit née Porges – married Ludwig Löwit (or Gottlieb) — the two Löwit sons-in-law are very likely brothers.
Granddaughter spokesperson: Marta Löwit, « im Namen sämtlicher Enkel ».
Bondy brothers (alive 1905): Koppelmann Bondy, Veit E. Bondy.
« Koppelmann » (Yiddish-Hebraic, derived from Jacob via Yankel/Koppel)
indicates a family that retained traditional Hebraic given names alongside the more acculturated Veit.
This 1905 obituary is the primary source document for the Bondy–Porges alliance previously inferred elsewhere in the corpus.
4. Wilhelmine Porges – funeral-time announcement (year unknown)
Wilhelmine Porges – funeral-time announcement, no maiden name, no age, no date of death given.
Funeral on a Sunday the 14th of an unspecified month, at 13:30 from the Israelite Mortuary House.
Notice number 5950, set in Fraktur (suggesting publication ca. 1885–1908).
This is a supplementary funeral notice; the primary obituary was published 1–3 days earlier and remains to be located.
