Cohn, Salomon Dawid (Stanislaw)
- Born: Dec 7, 1836, Warsaw, Poland
- Marriage (1): Taubwercel, Izabella
General Notes:
According to the book Neofici polscy (1904) by Teodor Jeske-Choinski , Stanislaw Cohn converted to Calvinism in 1886 along with his wife Iz abella Taubwercel. This book gives his parents' names as Matyas Coh n and Szarlotta Lubelska. Stanislaw participated in the 1863-64 Janua ry Uprising and was wounded in battle at Szklary near the Austrian bor der. He recuperated on the estate of Count Adam Potocki.
Like his brother Jakob he went to Paris after the Uprising and applie d for residence there. It is not certain if Stanislaw stayed in Pari s or returned to Warsaw. Jeske-Choinski says he converted to Calvinis m in 1886, but there were Calvinists in both France and Poland. So i t could have happened in either country.
The source for his living in Paris is the same as for Jakob Cohn: Bul letin des lois de l'Empire francais, vol. 26, page 887. In this sourc e he is described as "Stanislas Cohn, merchant, born December 11, 183 6 Varsovie, living in Paris (Seine)." The date of birth is slightly d ifferent from that listed above which comes from his actual birth reco rd in Warsaw where his name is given as Salomon Dawid only (without St anislaw).
Salomon married Izabella Taubwercel, daughter of Wolf Taubwercel and Teofila Endler.
