Joseph Einstein

Child in compiled Isak/Miriam household; reportedly emigrated to America. An official LEO-BW entry records a single Jewish brewer named Joseph Einstein of Laupheim emigrating to North America on 29 July 1856 (S-135), but because that index gives no age or parents, identity with this person remains a medium-confidence hypothesis (C-071).

Evidence-backed claims

The Steinheim family-register reconstruction lists thirteen children of Isak and Miriam Einstein and treats Daniel, an unnamed child born in 1844, Emanuel born in 1845, and Moritz as distinct children.

The Isak and Miriam pages reproduce the same thirteen-child list and both cite Familienregister p. 74. The sequence explicitly distinguishes the unnamed 1844 child from Emanuel born in 1845.

Strongly supported

The Joseph Einstein in the official 1856 Laupheim emigration entry is a plausible candidate for P-025, the Joseph listed in the compiled household of Isak and Miriam Einstein, and may document that child's emigration to North America.

The official LEO-BW entry records a single Jewish brewer named Joseph Einstein residing in Laupheim who emigrated to North America on 29 July 1856. P-025 is a Joseph Einstein in the reconstructed Isak/Miriam household, born about 1838 and already reported in compiled material as emigrating to America. The name, residence, religion, destination, and plausible age align, but the emigration index does not provide age, birth date, or parentage.
