The family record of the descendants of Johannes and Dan­ iel Wunderlich herewith given represents the work of many years. It contains the records of the descendants of these two brothers in seventeen distinct family lines. There were twenty children: four sons and seven daughters of Jo­ hannes and seven sons and two daughters of Daniel. One son of Johannes a~d one son and one daughter of Daniel left no descendants. The other seventeen families have been, as far as possible, followed down· to date, and in nearly every case the dates of birth, marriage and death are given. From the original homesteads in Pennsylvania and Virginia these children and grandchildren of the emigrants have multiplied and spread out in widely extended ramifications until they are scattered throughout the United States. In this record no attempt has been made to give any bio­ graphical sketches, as such an undertaking would have de­ layed for some years the publishing of the work and would have increased its size to such an extent that it · could -not have been compressed within the limits of one volume, how­ ever large that volume might have been made.

  • 2016 Impact Report
    INSPIRING 2016 IMPACT JEWISH REPORT GREATNESS Dear Friends, Over the three and a half years that I have had the merit of serving as CEO of Olami, I’ve had the privilege of seeing Olami develop from a concept to a foundation to a global community—a community of organizations that transcend geography and share a unique mission of inspiring Jewish greatness in our students and in ourselves. We have just begun to translate this common mission, a mission to transform lives through Torah and through caring relationships, into greater collaboration and empowerment, and I am excited by the momentum that has been generated this past year. Our first-ever global summit in November 2016 brought together almost fifty organizations from twenty countries and the energy was electric! Besides the palpable excitement generated by simply being together, we saw sixty student teams step forward to present their ideas for engaging other young Jews. They were passionate, they were articulate and they felt empowered. It was no surprise that our special Olami donors were so energized and inspired by experiencing the collective power of the Olami community. The fact that Olami now represents a global community with a track record of success has enabled us to create a partnership with Mosaic United, an initiative of the State of Israel investing millions of dollars into transformative experiences for Jewish students. We are looking “Our strategy for 2017 forward to seeing many of our expansion dreams supported through this new and beyond is to develop initiative and to realize our ambition of impacting ever increasing numbers of tools to strengthen and young Jewish adults.

Stanley Black has always been a man of great vision whose heart is as big as the high standards and goals he sets for himself. Following in his father’s footsteps, Stanley continues the yearly tradition of publishing a booklet of thoughts with great depth and meaning that he collects entitled, “Thoughts to Live By.” He distributes this publication to his friends, business associates and anyone who crosses the threshold of his office. Each edition speaks volumes about how we should live our lives and often focuses on the critical nature of philanthropy and leadership. Two examples from his 2012 book are: “Give and it will be given to you” and “It’s not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived.” Stanley lives by these credos each and every day.
