*Notes:
1. Selma Schloss married Emil Bär in July 1910. Emil died in April 1913. Selma then married Hermann Stern in March 1917. Hermann Stern died in September 1933. See The Families of Selma Stern (née Schloss, widowed Bär)
2. The Register of Jewish Religious Marriages/Namen des kirchlich getrauten Ehepaares records the marriage of Rickchen Bär [Baer], b. 18 Jan 1856 Marisfeld and Simon Müller, businessman, b. 18 Jan 1854. Marisfeld. Family records identify the husband of Ricca Baer as Max Müller. The most likely explanation is that Simon Müller was known as Max but that his formal given name was Simon.
3. Hedwig Baer was the second wife of Abraham Stern. Abraham’s first wife, Caolina (née Lang) died in 1883. She was the mother of Marta Stern, b. 1879. Hedwig who married Abraham in 1887, became Marta’s step-mother.
