Claims Supported by This Source

  1. Amschel Mayer von Rothschild was the eldest of Mayer Amschel Rothschild's five sons. He was born in the house of the Hinterpfann in Frankfurt on 12 June 1773
  2. He was in fact the first of the brothers to establish a business centre away from Frankfurt, but his stay in Cassel in 1805 proved only temporary
  3. In 1814 Amschel spent an uncomfortable few months in Berlin, handling subsidy payments to Britain's allies during the Napoleonic wars
  4. Amschel married Eva Hanau on 16 November 1796 … their union produced no children, to Amschel's great sorrow. The sons of his brother, Carl, inherited the Frankfurt business from him
  5. The citizens of Frankfurt had reason to be grateful to Amschel, whose will created the Amschel von Rothschild Foundation
