* We have at least four families headed by a couple named Izak & Feige, but since there is a possibility that there are two such couples, we are not combining these families yet.  In addition to the families IF1, IF2, IF3 and IF4, it is likely that the families Yitzhak and Brezdowitz are part of this same complex.  Pinchas/Rachel may be part of this, but are more likely part of Dina.

The year that the oldest ancestor was born is intended for purposes of perspective.
If it appears in black, the year is known from documents.
If it is in green, the year is approximate, based on documents or testimony.
If it is in orange, the year is an estimate, based on ages of spouse and children.
