Jimmy MANCBACH

  Leroy, son of Morris MANCBACH, married to Lillian Berger in 1951.

Joel Ha Levy Mansbach

c.1865-c.1930

In Poland,  Morris's herd of horses was wiped out by disease.  He came to American in 1914 aboard the Koenig Albert to earn his fortune.  The ship's manifest identifies him as "Moses Nauzbach" but says he was going to be staying with his brother Sam in Perth Amboy so Moses Nauzbach can be clearly identified as Morris MANCBACH. 

Morris owned a Tavern in New Jersey. Apparently,  Morris got himself into trouble in the Prohibition Era.  A case involving him distilling corn whiskey went all the way up to the United States Court of Appeals,  the second highest court in the United States,  just under the Supreme Court.  See  MANSBACH v. United States,  11F.2d 221 (Third Cir.  1926). https://casetext.com/case/mansbach-v-united-states. 

Morris had a son named Leroy and a son named Irwin, who had children named Jimmy and Jane, later Jane Fletcher MANSBACH.   Jane had a son named Nicholas.

Mansbach - Levyim Family

There are seven MANSBACH families today that descend from one of the following MANSBACHs:

Morris Ha Levy MANCBACH 1895-1954

Joel Ha Levy MANSBACH was born around 1865 and lived in Pryzemysl near the Ukranian border and in Lisowek, Poland.  He was married to Naomi Esther Jacoby.  We have no picture of him or her.

Joel had two sons,  Samuel and Morris.  The family seems to have also lived at one time In Jablonica/Jaslo, as did other MANSBACHS.  Thereafter, according to family lore they moved to the area of Vienna, Austria where Joel married Esther but there is no written evidence of their time in Vienna.  In fact, on the manifest of the  ship bringing him to America,  Morris identified his last place of residence as jablonica, Poland.

Joel MANSBACH owned land in the mountains where they had horses and cattle.  When each son reached the age of 16, he was given approximately $1000 to begin his own herd.  According to family tradition, Joel MANSBACH was a physically strong and powerful man and exceptionally good natured. 

At Ellis Island, the MANSBACH name was permanently changed for this family to MANCBACH.  It continued to be pronounced MANSBACH, however.

Samuel MANCBACH was born on March 17, 1891. He later immigrated to the U.S. and became a naturalized citizen, passing away in 1941 in Middlesex County, New Jersey.

Samuel had three sons, Edward, James and Thomas Noel MANCBACH with Mary Catherine Kennedy.
