Family Life at the Jarays Sigmund Jaray

The Firm was born Sigmund Jeitteles in 1838 in Temesvar (Timisoara) Romania, which

Years of Triumph at the time was in the Austrian Hungarian empire. Sigmund had two brothers

The Dynasty stumbles Alexander (Sándor), and Adolf, and three sisters Ida, Cilli, and Nelly. Since at

Exodus the time of this writing we know little of his sisters who presumably married

The Destination and changed names, we're left only to follow the trail of the Jaray brothers

for whom documents are more easily available.

Allgemein:

Startseite Austria's history Summary of our site was influenced by its position along the great migration route between Asia Impressum and Europe, and by the interaction of Roman, Slavic, and Germanic cultures.

The history of Austria began during Charlemagne's rule. He defeated the

Avars of Hungary and on the banks of the Danube formed the eastern

section of the Holy Roman Empire, the Ostarichi, later anglicized to Austria.

In 976, Leopold von Babenberg, ruler of Austria, moved the capital around

the country, finally settling on Vienna.

In 1246

the Hapsburgs emerged to establish the most famous dynasty in Europe. The

20 emperors and kings of the Hapsburg line ruled the Holy Roman Empire

until its abolition in 1806, and ruled Austria itself until 1918. The Hapsburg

Empire stretched from Spain in the west to the Netherlands in the north, Italy

in the south and Balkans in the east.

permeated Europe and Austria adopted the style with enthusiasm. The next

century saw Empress Maria Theresia reform government, education and

finance and her successor Joseph II elevated Vienna into the golden age of

music. Haydn and Mozart were succeeded by Beethoven and other

composers.

The Jeiteles (Jeitteles)

family emerges as a family of scholars in Prague. Prominent in medicine, and

the cultural arts. Aloys Jeitteles wrote the words to Beethoven's "An die

Ferne Geliebte", and much has been written of Dr. Jonas Jeiteles (1735 -

1806), chief physician of the Jewish community hospital. The medical

achievement which most earned him the name "Father of the Prague

Enlightenment" was his propagation of Edward Jenner’s smallpox vaccination

in the face of Jewish and Christian prejudice. He inoculated his own daughter

and 1500 other patients, and in 1784 after an audience with Joseph II, was An die ferne Geliebte Op. 98, Ludwig van Beethoven, text by Aloys the sole Jewish physician permitted to treat patients "without consideration Jeitteles of their religion".

The Jewish Encyclopedia describes the Jeiteles family from 1629 to the

1860’s, with numerous publications & accomplishments. It includes a family

tree beginning with Moses Simon (1629) to the grandsons of Dr. Jonas in

1860’s. Even if we are not sure if those Jeiteles are related to us we shall try

to follow this family forward.

According to a letter of

ISRAELITISCHE KULTUSGEMEINDE WIEN, it's proved now that the

parents of Sigmund, Alexander and Adolf were MARCUS JEITTELES,

a furniture trader, and Julie née Steinbach.

In 1844, Magyar (Hungarian) became the official language. The Magyar

people wished independence from Austrian rule and in 1867, a compromise

reached by Emperor Franz Joseph resulted in the dual monarchy of Austria

and Hungary.

With Magyar being adopted as the new official language, people began

changing surnames to the Magyar pronunciation. As a result, the Jeitteles

name in our branch of the family was changed to "Jaray" (pronounced

Yaray). Sigmund, Alexander and Adolf Jeitteles and their three sisters, all saw

their surname changed from Jeitteles to Jaray. Their cousin Malvine Jeitteles

from another branch of our family saw her name become Jetley.

The House of Jaray

Age of Prosperity Age of Prosperity

Family Life at the Jarays AGE OF PROSPERITY

The Firm The 19th century was the "Golden Age" of prosperity. The old city walls of

Years of Triumph Vienna came down, and were replaced by the Ringstrasse and splendid new

The Dynasty stumbles buildings. It was an age of elegance in music, waltz, theatre, art, decoration,

Exodus sculpture, tapestry, and every other possible desire a prosperous nation could

The Destination demand. Im Café Griensteidl, Aquarell Völkel, 1896

Allgemein: Sigmund Jaray, Startseite age 28, married to Mathilde Eckstein, began his career as a tapestry maker. Summary of our site He was artistic and skilled in architectural design. His brother Sándor was Impressum even more artistic, a master of design and color in tapestry, and of gold leaf.

These skills were required in Vienna, so these two Jaray boys left from

Temesvar to check things out. It appears Sigmund and Sándor commuted

between Vienna and Temesvar in the early days since Sigmund's sons Max

(1868), Sandor Jr. (1870) and daughter Gisela (1872) were all born in

Temesvar, while the last two sons Karl (1873) and Alfred (1875) were both

born in Vienna.

Sándor Járay

came to Vienna in 1868 and started his business as a gilder under the name

Alexander Jeitteles at Grüngasse 21. On the second of August, 1868, he

married Therese Ludwig in the “Wiener Stadt-Tempel”. Therefore Therese

became Jewish in July 1868. They had three daughters Antonie (1869), Julie

(1870) and Karoline (1871) and also a son named Karl (1878) who were all

born in Vienna. In 1871 he changed his name to Sándor Járay, working now

at Fleischmanngasse 5. Whether he and his family became Catholic at the

same time we don’t know yet.

Sándor and Sigmund

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 6/98

found Vienna most anxious to receive their skills. Close brothers, they worked

together, yet it appears they also set up independent firms. Sigmund moved

his family to Vienna in late 1872. Sándor had already established himself as a

tradesman and tapestry maker for the Imperial Palace of the Kaiser with his

gold leaf skills, and his gift for decoration. A book found at the bookstore of

the Imperial Palace, Vienna, "Kaiserliche Interieurs" refers to Sándor Járay

and has several references and pictures of rooms he decorated in the palace,

and some names of artists who worked along with him, including brothers

Ernst and Gustav Klimt.

Interior decoration in Vienna in the late 1800's and early 1900's was the

ultimate expression of art requiring architecture, design, painting, tapestry,

sculpture and gold leaf work. The Jaray boys were in their element. When

firms such as theirs accepted a job, they took on everything, from furniture,

sculpture, paintings, wall coverings, etc., down to the smallest detail such as

the cutlery and even the salt & pepper shakers.

Gold leaf, hand painted ceilings, and exquisite furniture were commonplace

among the rich, while more average hand carved wood furniture was in

demand by the working man. Sándor was regarded as "the" specialist in

exquisite Baroque decoration. The book "Gustav Klimt and Emilie Flöge" by

Wolfgang Fischer, mentions "Herr Sándor Járay" as the heavy going interior

designer in the money swanker’s salons until the massive changes in

Viennese art began occurring around 1900.

Other artists were coming on stream by 1900 headed by Gustav Klimt, and

the secession movement. Students from the Art Academy, often taught by

architect Otto Wagner, were making statements. Artists like Klimt, Schiele,

Olbrich, Hoffmann, Gerstl, and among them were also included Sigmund's

two sons Max and Sandor Jaray. Max attended the Academy with some

distinction in 1887, and Sandor Jr. won a scholarship with his statue

"Somnambule" in 1899 allowing him to study for a year in Rome. Sandor

exhibited his works widely at the time, sculpting busts in marble, bronze and

wood. His life size bronze of actor Josef Kainz sculpted in 1911 is located in

the 18th district at Josef-Kainz-Platz, opposite the “Türkenschanzpark”. His

marble monument of Franz Liszt is located in Eisenstadt. He currently has a

monument to Theodor Herzl located at the entrance to the Tel Aviv Law

school, and his beloved sculpture "To Zion" currently stands at the entrance

of The Museum of Art, Bin Harod, Israel. The Nazis confiscated Sandor’s

studio in 1938, and aryanized the gallery he and his wife Lea owned in 1939.

The Jaray family (his grandson Ron) is searching for the many works stolen

and subsequently lost.

Realizing wealth has the ability to change hands quickly, Sigmund felt a

second division of his firm could furnish the homes of a wider range of

people. His main focus was exquisite Biedermeier style furnishings, so he

decided to establish a separate division dealing exclusively with the furniture freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 7/98 needs of the average worker. He became very successful, and was granted

the title "K.u.k." (By appointment to the Kaiser). During WW I, because of it's

highly skilled workers, the Sigmund Jaray furniture factories were converted

to manufacture some of the first European airplanes.

Family Life at the Jarays FAMILY LIFE AT THE JARAYS

The Firm Sigmund by all accounts and photographs enjoyed his family. He and

Years of Triumph Mathilde encouraged their children in art, music, theatre, and insisted on

The Dynasty stumbles their education. As Sigmund's business flourished, so did his family. The

Exodus Jarays were fashionable. There were parties and family gatherings in which

The Destination Sigmund and his brother Sándor and their families would socialize with

artists, musicians, actors, dignitaries and educators, including Sigmund Freud

and even the Imperial Family. In the evenings, the Jarays would walk the Allgemein: central square, as Viennese families do today, enjoying coffee and creams at Sandor (the sculptor) and Startseite Sigmund Freud the "Sacher Hotel" and other cafe's which still exist to this day. Summary of our site

Impressum Sigmund and Sándor's brother Adolf,

born in 1846, joined them in Vienna in 1877 and married Therese Schönberg.

The children Juliette, Karl, Felix and Paul were born in Vienna, Rudolf in Budapest.

Adolf started as a gilder, coal merchant and trade representative. In 1881 he

set up a factory for the production of leaven. In 1897 he also set up a factory

for machine-boxes and in 1901 his business included a wine-trade. Beside

this he was very popular with a fine singing voice. Though a Jew, he was an

invited soloist at St. Stephan's cathedral in the square.

Adolf Jaray

The Jaray family

grew in numbers, until Jaray cousins were prominent everywhere. They were

popular with artists, musicians and actors. As Sigmund and his brothers

prospered, opportunities opened for their children. Jaray offspring excelled at

art, music, architecture, design, and sculpture. Music was important in their

homes and each child was schooled on a stringed instrument.

They had bright, inquisitive and inventive minds, so Sigmund and his

brothers paid for the best schools, often sending their children to study in Karl Jaray (1873 Vienna - 1920 London or Paris. As youths, they were allowed to work in their father's or Vienna) uncle's design shops or factories, and to mingle with the skilled tradesmen.

They were always encouraged to practice whatever skills or abilities they

had. Young Sandor loved acting and sculpting, while his brother Alfred,

fascinated with electricity, became an electrical engineer and inventor.

Although they were encouraged to pursue their dreams, Sigmund had a not

so secret desire that all his children eventually be in the family business. As a

result, art, design and architecture were heavily sprinkled among other

chosen studies.

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 9/98 When young Sandor,

a talented artist, appeared too much involved with his acting, Sigmund found

ways to bring him back to his art and sculpture, believing these skills to be

more valuable in the family firm.

Age of Prosperity The Firm

Family Life at the Jarays THE FIRM

The Firm The book "Möbel des Jugendstils" by Vera J. Behal, available at the Vienna

Years of Triumph Academy of Fine Arts bookstore, contains information on Sigmund Jaray with

The Dynasty stumbles photos of some of the furniture he built for the average worker. The

Exodus grouping offered in her book is one which won an award as the best

The Destination grouping under 300 Kronen. Otto Wagner was one of the judges. In

appreciation of this award there appears in the book a letter from the

archives, written by Sigmund on his company letterhead, and donating this Allgemein: entire grouping as a gift to the museum. Startseite

Summary of our site Passages from the book as translated from German go as follows;

Impressum Sigmund Jaray,

1838 - 1908 came from Temesvar, and founded his tapestry firm in 1870. In

the 70's he had a tapestry and decorating firm at Bräunerstrasse 3 (next to

Graben), where he had a big furniture showroom exhibiting different styles.

At the world exhibition of 1873, he won a medal of excellence. On February

27, 1877 he set up the independent firm "Sigmund Jaray Tapisserie", and in

1885 his firm is recognized in the business directory of decorators.

On April 7, 1891, Sigmund Jaray was appointed Tapestry maker to the Bräunerstrasse 1 Imperial Palace, and his firm was given the title "K.u.K. Hof-Tapezierer". The

firm expanded quickly as evidenced by the taxes paid. In the 20 years from

1872 - 1892, The firm's taxes increased from 52 1/2 Gulden to 210 Gulden,

basically doubling in size every 5 years.

In 1892, the company was transformed into a firm of associates, the only

associate being Max Jaray, Sigmund's eldest son (1868 - 1920). Max had

studied at the Vienna Academy of Fine Art from 1887. He did his practical

work in Paris with Sigmund’s good friend Sam Bing. After Paris he worked as

a designer for his father. His brother Karl also worked in the firm, though not

as an artist. On July 16, 1895, Max officially became a director of the

company.

At the end of the 1890's

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 11/98

all divisions of the company except the factory were moved to Heugasse 70,

Vienna III (now Prinz-Eugen-Strasse). The building housed furniture displays,

drawing and design workshops, tapestry manufacturing, and private offices.

The factory remained at Quellenstrasse 15, Vienna X.

The house Prinz-Eugen-Strasse 70 was built for Sigmund Jaray by architects

Helmer and Fellner. Two of their prominent projects were for instance the

Burgtheater and the Wiener Konzerthaus. Prinz-Eugen-Strasse 70 (former

Heugasse 70) Sigmund and Mathilde lived there as well as their sons Max and Karl with

their families.

In 1907, Sigmund and Max were both awarded the title of Imperial Furniture

maker and "K.u.K. Möbelfabrikanten". To mark the occasion they arranged

for a special exhibition in their showrooms in the Heugasse called "Interiors,

Exquisite Furnishings, Old Gobelins and Pieces of Art". (Gobelins were

exquisite tapestries). In the factory on Quellenstrasse at the same time, they

organized another exhibition titled "Average Furniture Arrangements".

Shortly thereafter, Sigmund died (1908). Max Jaray continued the firm until

1920 (when he also died), together with his brother Karl who became an

Associate and Director. After Karl died a few months later in 1920 the firm

went into trusteeship, managed by Hugo Marle until 1922 when Felix Jaray, a

cousin of Max (Adolf's son), took it over. In 1933 it was dissolved.

At the turn of the century Sigmund often worked off the plans of his architect

Rudolf Hammel. Few other architects from Sigmund's drawing workshop

attained the same notoriety, though Max Jaray also did designs. In 1899 he

employed Albin Aldesie, a graduate from the Vienna Academy, and in 1910,

architect Heinz Konings was head of design. At the same time architects

Kondor and Rudolf Wimmer were employed.

Both Sigmund and later Max became distinguished members of the

Association of Interior Decorators, and participated in all the exhibitions.

After that they organized exhibitions regularly in the Austrian Museum. In

1902, they exhibited at the World Exhibition in St. Louis. At the World

Exhibition of Furniture in London 1902, the Jaray firm exhibited "Old

Viennese Interiors" from around 1830. Under "Rooms of Historical Style" at

the London Exhibition 1902, Sándor Járay displayed a Biedermeier bedroom

from the imperial court with great success. He also set up an exact model of

a Baroque library and in order to make it look authentic, he asked permission

of his friend the Kaiser to borrow the chandeliers from the Schönbrunn

Palace.

In 1899, Sigmund had received second prize in a competition organized by

the Austrian museum and afterwards he donated his entire exhibit to the

museum. This became the first modern creation in the museum's collection.

Family Life at the Jarays YEARS OF TRIUMPH

The Firm The thirty years from 1870 to 1900 were prosperous for the Jarays. The family enjoyed influence and success. By

Years of Triumph the 1890’s, the Jaray children began making their place in society, marrying and starting families of their own.

The Dynasty stumbles

Exodus It began in 1892, with Sigmund and Mathilde's daughter Gisela, aged 20, marrying 31 year- old Budapest

The Destination merchant Joseph Stricker, son of Salomon Stricker and Rosalie Ries. Their first child Franz Stricker was born on

February 4, 1897, and was followed by another son Ernst on July 18, 1900.

Allgemein: Julie, Sándor and Therese’s second daughter was next. In 1897 she married the merchant Karl Seifert, son of Startseite Johann Heinrich Seifert (Seifert-Billard) and Rosa Bauer. Their first child Emma Seifert was born on January 23, Summary of our site 1898. On January 13, 1900 Friedrich was born, followed by Elisabeth on May 13, 1902. Impressum

In 1900, Sándor and Therese’s eldest daughter Antonie married Karl Bayer. Their first child Gertrude was born

on February 5, 1901, followed by Ernst(May 20, 1902).

Shortly after, Sándor’s only son Karl, also an architect, married Valerie, mother of Maria and Hans Jaray. Later

he was married to Lili Marberg. Maria was born on April 20, 1901. Sandor “der Alte”, as Sigmund’s brother was

now affectionately called, became a grandfather for the seventh time as his son Karl had a son Hans born on June

24, 1906. Hans later became one of Vienna's best-known actors. Hans went to New York during the Holocaust

where he became a matinee idol and made films with Henry Fonda, Billy Wilder and Merle Oberon. Hans eventually

returned to Vienna and now rests in an honor grave with a key to the city of Vienna.

Sigmund’s son Karl married a year later. He and Emma Fuchs, daughter of Ferdinand Fuchs and Ernestine

Schnabel, had a summer wedding on August 11, 1901, and their first boy Richard was born on December 3, 1902.

Francis (Franz Ferdinand), their second son, was born on March 11, 1906.

Celebrations were interrupted in 1902 with the death of Mathilde, Sigmund’s wife. She died unexpectedly, and

currently rests in the Jewish cemetery at the edge of town. Sigmund was 62 at the time.

In 1903, Sigmund’s eldest son Max married Elsa Brand, daughter of Jakob Brand and Babette Käufler. A year

later, October 28, 1904, their son Peter arrived, followed by a sister Mathilde on September 11, 1908, named

after her grandmother.

In 1905 Sigmund’s two sons Sandor and Alfred married, as well as Adolf’s son Felix.

Sandor Jr. married Karoline von Nagy-Buck, and their son Stephan was born March 1, 1906.

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 13/98 The youngest son Alfred, an electrical engineer and inventor, married Fanny Hirsch, daughter of Carl Hirsch and

Pauline Bing at a huge ceremony April 9, 1905. Pauline Bing was sister to Sam Bing, whose art gallery "La Maison

de L'Art Nouveau" in Paris is credited with giving the Art Nouveau movement its name. Carl Hirsch and Sam Bing

were brothers in law and business partners in Sam Bing & Co. In addition to importing Asian artworks, and having

among other lines the exclusive European Tiffany distribution, they owned a button factory (before the invention of

Zippers). Fanny Hirsch's sister Else was married to Baron Felix Pollack-Parnegg, director of Hermann Pollack & sons.

By this time, according to a letter by Herbert Jaray in 1962, the families were so influential a separate edition of the

paper was published on the marriage of Alfred and Fanny depicting family members on both sides in gossip

columns and caricatures. Alfred and Fanny had two sons, George born in London April 24,1906, and Herbert in

Vienna February 5, 1909.

Adolfs’s son Felix, married Mimi Pollack, and they had an only son Walter, born in 1906.

In the same year, Adolf’s second son Karl, a professor of reinforced concrete at the University of Prague, married

Grete Hirsch, Fanny’s cousin. They had three children, Mariedl born 1907, Rudolf born 1909, and Karl born in

1919.

In 1914, Adolf and Therese’s youngest son Paul married Olga Jehle. Like his cousin Alfred he was an engineer. He

made a name for himself and is written up extensively as an inventor and designer in the automotive and aviation

fields. Paul's aeronautical designs are still used today in both cars and airplanes. They had three children, Hansi

born February 1,1915, Peter born June 12, 1918 and Werner born September 15, 1920.

Adolf's son Rudolf and his daughter Juliette both died very young of T.B., Sándor’s (“der Alte”) third daughter

Age of Prosperity The Dynasty stumbles

Family Life at the Jarays THE DYNASTY STUMBLES

The Firm The family suffered with the loss of Mathilde in 1902. Business was going

Years of Triumph well, and a young generation of Jarays was arriving on the scene. Suffering

The Dynasty stumbles from diabetes and arteriosclerosis, Sigmund felt quite comfortable

Exodus transferring his business empire to his sons Max and Karl. They each excelled

The Destination in different areas of the company, and the business thrived under their

leadership. The other two boys Sandor and Alfred had long since denounced

any management interest in the family firm, yet both were successful in their Allgemein: own right. Sandor was a popular sculptor, exhibiting portrait busts and other Startseite groups of his work in Vienna, Munich, and Rome. He was sought-after for Summary of our site prestigious commissions and was earning a handsome living. Impressum

Alfred, an electrical engineer, enjoyed being around other young inventors.

Though he lived at Reisnerstrasse 31, in Vienna III, he loved London,

eventually buying a home there. At first he lived at 7 Torrington Square

(1898) by the university, where he was a frequent contributor to the patent

office. Several patents are registered in Alfred’s name. In 1904, at age 29, he

became director of the British Vacuum Co., a firm believed to be established

by a group of investors including his father Sigmund, and his uncle Sándor,

to market a new invention called the vacuum cleaner. A year later, 1905,

Alfred married Fanny Hirsch, the daughter of Carl Hirsch (a wealthy

industrialist) and his wife Pauline Bing, (sister of Sam Bing). Fanny's only

sister Else was married to Baron Felix Pollack von Parnegg, who later in 1915

after Alfred's death from pneumonia became guardian to Alfred and Fanny's

two sons George and Herbert. Alfred and Fanny inherited Fanny's dad Carl

Hirsch's interest in Sam Bing & Co. and Alfred's share of Sigmund Jaray's

firms.

February 2nd, 1908,

Sigmund Jaray, age 70, died. He currently rests with his wife Mathilde in the

family plot at Zentralfriedhof, Vienna, Tor 1 (Gate 1).

The Struggles of the next dozen years resulted in much of Sigmund's and

brother Sándor's accomplishments being undone. The Jaray family would

remain stunted for another complete generation. Sigmund's grave

First came the death of Alfred of pneumonia in 1915. He rests in the family

plot at Zentralfriedhof, Vienna (Tor 1), Vienna. George and Herbert, ages 9

and 7 had now lost both grandparents and their father.

On the tenth of July, 1916, Sándor “der Alte”, age 71, died. He rests with his

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 15/98 wife Therese, his children Karoline, Antonie and Karl as well as his grandson

Hans at Hietzinger Friedhof, Vienna (Gruppe 13).

In January 1920 Max Jaray died unexpectedly in a climbing accident on the

Matterhorn leaving Peter and his sister Mathilde, ages 15 and 11. Peter died

in an accident at age 20. Max and Elsa rest with their son Peter at

Evangelischer Friedhof, Vienna/Simmering (Tor 4).

Also in 1920, Karl died in the flu epidemic in August, leaving two teenage

boys, Richard and Francis, ages 17 and 14. He rests in the family plot at

Zentralfriedhof, Vienna (Tor 1).

This was a severe blow to the family business, as the outbreak of WW I in

1914 required business adjustments, and Max relied on Karl's ability. Karl,

among other things, ran the division of the company called "Flugzeug &

Propellerfabrik" (1916 -1919) which built some of the world's first airplanes.

Engineers employed in this firm included both Julius Kolin and cousin Paul

Jaray.

No Jaray was left, being capable of running the family business. Sigmund's

grandsons were all too young. A generation of Jaray brothers had died

prematurely, leaving Sandor and Gisela, both of whom were ill equipped to

run the family business. Old Sándor’s only son Karl and Adolf’s sons Karl and

Paul (he moved to in 1923) were also not in the family business.

The firm was placed in the trusteeship of a gentleman named Hugo Marle,

until it was finally rescued by Adolf's son Felix in 1922. By then, it had lost

much of its presence as an industry leader and floundered in a changing

economy. Though Felix struggled with the company for the next decade, it

was eventually dissolved in 1933.

Alfred’s son George was at this time already in Canada. His mother Fanny and his brother Herbert fled to London

and later to Australia.

Adolf’s son Paul already moved to Switzerland in 1923. His brother Karl first fled to London with his wife and

children and later he moved to Buenos Aires. His brother Felix fled to London with his wife Mimi and son

Walter.

Only “old” Sándor’s children stayed in Vienna. Julie died in Vienna January 11, 1940 and her brother Karl in August

1944. There were only three of this branch who emigrated to the US. Karl’s children Hans, who returned to Vienna

in 1948, and Maria. Julie’s daughter Elisabeth fled with her husband Paul Margulies while her sister Emma and

brother Friedrich stayed there with their families. The children of Antonie, Sándor’s oldest daughter, Gertrude and

Ernst Bayer also stayed in Vienna.

Those who managed to emigrate faced discrimination and poverty starting over in countries which didn't take kindly

to European immigrants. They had no relatives, suffered internment, had language problems and few friends.

London and Australia were overtly unsympathetic to European refugees. In London during the war, German and

Austrian refugees were interned, and opportunities to earn a living were limited, if they existed at all.

Communications and foreign travel were extremely difficult even if the money was available. These were the

conditions our family faced.

After the war, Austria as well as Vienna was divided into four zones and ruled by the four armies of occupation

under the command of the High Commissioners Clark (USA), Konjew (UdSSR) McCreery (Great Britain) and

Béthouart (France). Even when Austria got a new parliament in November 1945, any thoughts of returning to a

homeland were futile. The Jarays continued their independent lives in separate countries, living without benefit of

relatives for the next 60 years. It wasn't until 1995, when the second generation of emigrant Jaray families reached

maturity, that they were ready now to began to reunite. Aside from Sigmund's sisters and their families, (whom we

would of course like to locate), there currently exist two branches of Sigmund and Mathilde's children missing. The

families of Gisela's two sons, Franz and Ernst Stricker, where we know that they fled to Chicago and passed away in

1965 and 1966. Those families have yet to be located.

Hopefully these cousins will eventually surface.

It was very difficult to find work in one of the numerous enterprises in the ghetto in order to at least gradually

Allgemein: Getting to and around Vienna is easy. The airport is on the highway to

Startseite Budapest, so if plans include Budapest (approximately 250 km.), it's perhaps

Summary of our site best to rent a car at the airport and go to Budapest first. Return the car to

Impressum the Vienna Airport and take a cab to your hotel, or the bus which takes you

to the Hilton where you can catch a cab. Most of the cabs are Mercedes

sedans. All the hotels and tourist destinations and the cemetery are on the

subway, which is clean, easy, and inexpensive. A 3 day pass for 2 people can

be purchased from your hotel for about $6, (1998) and maps are free.

You'll want to visit

Josef-Kainz-Platz in the 18th district, where Sandor's life size bronze statue of

Josef Kainz playing Hamlet is located across from the Türkenschanzpark. To

get there, take a cab from the end of the underground line. It's only a $5

ride, and since there's not much else there, you may have the cab wait while

you take pictures. You'll notice Sandor signed the bottom of the bronze and

the date (1911). I found myself looking at numerous other bronze statues on

my travels trying to locate more of his works. We know there are more so

keep your eyes open.

There's also

a large marble monument of Franz Liszt sitting on a bench, which Sandor

unveiled amid international acclaim in 1936 in Eisenstadt. I couldn't find it as

I didn't know where to look, and didn't visit Eisenstadt. The only clue is a

building in the background of the picture with the name "Krankenkasse".

You'll likely find more of Sandor's work if you make a trip to Trautenau

(Trutnov), which is located in the Czech Republic. When Sandor was

stationed there in WW I, he and other noted artists served as grave memorial

artists from 1916 to 1918. That’s how Austria protected its cultural elite from

potential harm.

church record books for you to look at. It was exciting to see the handwriting of our relatives on marriage and birth

records. It's in the center of town and quite easy to find.

You may also like

to go to the Rathaus, which is the town-hall. I'm told they have the old lists

of residents and information on almost everyone. I didn't get there, so it's up

to you.

Volksgarten and Rathaus, Jan. 2003

Most of Vienna

is easy to walk. The buildings and museums are magnificent. The station of

the underground “Stephansplatz” by the big Cathedral is almost the center of

the square and a good place to start. From here, you can walk to the

Imperial Palace, see the parliament buildings, and walk the same

cobblestones as our ancestors. The palace they helped decorate is now a

museum, and the Academy of Art is still there. The Karlsplatz station beside

the Historical Museum was designed by Otto Wagner, a family friend and

teacher at the Vienna Academy of Art during the time Sandor & Max Stephansdom (Wilfried Gredler- Oxenbauer) attended. Otto also taught Gustav Klimt, and Egon Schiele and Richard

Gerstl. The Sigmund Freud family and the Jaray family were also close

friends in Vienna.

In the third district,

close to the center of Vienna, is a wonderful canal (Donaukanal). You can

walk along the canal to Weissgärberlände 38, Wien III, Sandor JR’s home

along the waterway past the famous 100 yr. house. Sandor's apartment

(from which the Nazis stole art) was here. Apparently taken from the wall of

his and Lea's home was a work by Egon Schiele "Portrait of Wally" which was

frozen in New York and has became one of the more famous pieces of

pilfered holocaust art.

The Jewish cemetery

is extremely large, old and overgrown. Many families were completely wiped

out and are long forgotten. Others have returned to restore family

monuments. You may wish to take clippers or a small spade if possible and

be prepared to search and seek help from Mr. Pagler * at the gate. It's

advisable to arrange some advance help if you can. I found Max's monument Sigmund's grave located in Tor IV with help from the gate man. I borrowed a spade from a

flower shop and planted some flowers. I only discovered that Sigmund and

the rest of our family are located in Tor I from Ms. Weiss the day after I had

visited the cemetery. I was to fly out the next morning and sadly couldn't

return to the cemetery. I plan to return again and hope to locate and

possibly attempt restoration of the monuments (with the help of my brothers

and cousins). I think it would be nice if we could have Sandor resurrected

and placed in the family plot with his brothers and parents in Vienna where

he belongs. He died in exile in 1943. Hopefully we can someday achieve

these objectives as I personally believe it would put our family properly and

comfortably to rest with the dignity they deserve. And perhaps this will offer

future generations a destination to help discover their heritage.

* Ten years ago, 72 year-old catholic Walter Pagler founded the Society

“Schalom”. His aim was to save the Jewish part of Zentralfriedhof at gate 1,

More on Sándor Járay (Sen.) Sigmund Jaray was born Sigmund Jeitteles in 1838 in Temesvar (Timisoara)

More on Adolf Jaray Romania, which at the time was in the Austrian Hungarian empire. Sigmund

More on Sandor Jaray had two brothers Alexander (Sándor), and Adolf, and three sisters Ida, Cilli

brothers, they worked together, yet it appears they also set up independent

firms. Sigmund moved his family to Vienna in late 1873.

Interior decoration

in Vienna in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s was the ultimate expression of

art requiring architecture, design, painting, tapestry, sculpture and gold leaf

work. The Jaray boys were in their element. When firms such as theirs

accepted a job, they took on everything, from furniture, sculpture, paintings,

wall coverings, etc., down to the smallest detail such as the cutlery and even

the salt & pepper shakers.

Gold leaf, hand painted ceilings and exquisite furniture were commonplace

among the rich, while more average hand carved wood furniture was in

demand by the working man.

Realizing wealth has the ability to change hands quickly, Sigmund felt a

second division of his firm could furnish the homes of a wider range of

people. His main focus was exquisite Biedermeier style furnishings, so he

decided to establish a separat division dealing exclusively with the furniture

needs of the average worker. He became very succesful and was granted the

title „K.u.k.“ (By appointment to the Kaiser). During WW I, because of it‘s

highly skilled workers, the Sigmund Jaray furniture factories were converted

to manufacture some of the first European airplanes.

The book "Möbel des Jugendstils"

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 36/98

by Vera J. Behal, available at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts bookstore,

contains information on Sigmund Jaray with photos of some of the furniture

he built for the average worker. The grouping offered in her book is one

which won an award as the best grouping under 300 Kronen. Otto Wagner

was one of the judges. In appreciation of his award there appears in the

book a letter from the archives, written by Sigmund on his company

letterhead, and donating this entire grouping as a gift to the museum.

Passages from the book as translated from German go as follows:

Sigmund Jaray, 1838 - 1908 came from Temesvar, and founded his tapestry

firm in 1870. In the 70‘s he had a tapestry and decorating firm at

Bräunerstrasse 1 (next to Graben), where he had a big furniture showroom

exhibiting different styles. At the world exhibition of 1873, he won a medal of

excellence. On February 27, 1877 he set up the independent firm „Sigmund

Jaray Tapisserie“ and in 1885 his firm is recognized in the business directory

of the decorators.

On April 7th 1891, Sigmund Jaray was appointed Tapestry maker to the

Imperial Palace, and his firm was given the title „K.u.K. Hof-Tapezierer“

In 1892, the company was transformed into a firm of associates, the only

associate being Max Jaray, Sigmund‘s eldest son (1868-1920). Max had

studied at the Vienna Academy of Fine Art from 1887. He did his practical

work in Paris with Sigmund‘s good friend Sam Bing. After Paris he worked as

a designer for his father. His brother Karl also worked in the firm, though not

as an artist. On July 16, 1895, Max officially became a director of the

company.

At the end of 1891

all divisions of the company except the factory were moved to Heugasse 70,

Vienna III (now Prinz-Eugen-Strasse). The building housed furniture displays,

drawing and design workshops, tapestry manufacturing, and private offices.

The factory remained at Quellenstrasse 15, Vienna X. At this time Sigmund

got the title „k.u.k. Hof-Tapezierer und Decorateur“.

In 1907, Sigmund and Max were both awarded the title of Imperial Furniture

maker and „K.u.K. Möbelfabrikanten“.

To mark the occasion they arranged for a special exhibition in their Prinz-Eugen-Strasse 70 (former Heugasse 70) showrooms in the Heugasse called „Interiors, Exquisite Furnishings, Old

Gobelins and Pieces of Art“ (Gobelins were exquisite tapestries). In the

factory on Quellenstrasse at the same time, they organized another

exhibition titled „Average Furniture Arrangements“.

Shortly thereafter, Sigmund died (1908).

Max Jaray

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 37/98

continued the firm until 1920 (when he also died), together with his brother

Karl who became an Associate and Director.

After Karl died a few month later in 1920 the firm went into trusteeship,

managed by Hugo Marle until 1922 when Felix Jaray, a cousin of Max, took it

over. (Felix was the second son of Adolf, Sigmund‘s and Sandor‘s youngest

brother). In 1933 it was dissolved.

More on Sándor Járay (Sen.) More on Sándor Járay (Sen.)

Sándor's children Sándor Járay was born Alexander Jeitteles in 1845 in Temesvar (Timisoara)

More on Adolf Jaray Romania. Very young he moved to Vienna and married Therese Ludwig in

More on Sandor Jaray August 1868 in the „Wiener Stadt-Tempel“. Therefore Therese became

More on Alfred Jaray Jewish in July 1868. Later, probably in 1872, he and his family became

More on Paul Jaray Catholic.

More on Hans Jaray He worked as a gilder and started his business under the name „Alexander More on Tess Jaray Jeiteles“ in 1869. Their eldest daughter Antonie was born in Vienna July Entries in books / records 1869, followed by two sisters Julie (1870), and Karoline (1871). His only son

Karl was born in 1872.

Allgemein: He changed his name in 1871, working now at Fleischmanngasse 5. Startseite

Summary of our site Sándor was a master of design Impressum and color in tapestry and of gold leaf. He worked together with his brother

Sigmund but he must have left Temesvar earlier to establish himself as a

tradesman and tapestry maker for the Imperial Palace of the Kaiser with his

gold leaf skills and his gift for decoration.

A book found at the bookstore of the Imperial Palace, Vienna „Kaiserliche

Interieurs“ refers to Sándor Járay and has several references and pictures of

rooms he decorated in the palace, and some names of artists who worked

along with him, including brothers Ernst and Gustav Klimt.

Sándor was regarded as „the“ specialist in exquisite Baroque decoration. The

book „Gustav Klimt and Emilie Flöge“ by Wolfgang Fischer, mentions „Herr

Sándor Járay“ as the heavy going interior designer in the money swanker‘s

salons until the massive changes in Viennese art began occurring around

1900.

At the World Exhibition

of Furniture in London 1902, the Jaray firm exhibited „Old Viennese Interiors“

from around 1830. Under „Rooms of Historical Style“ at the London Exhibition

1902, Sándor Járay displayed a Biedermeier bedroom from the imperial court

with great success. He also set up an exact model of a Baroque library and in

order to make it look authentic, he asked permission of his friend the Kaiser

to borrow the chandeliers from the Schönbrunn Palace.

Sándor „der Alte“ as he was now affectionately called, since Sigmund named

his second son after his brother, became a grandfather for the seventh time

as his son Karl, also an architect, had a son Hans born in 1906. Hans later

became one of Vienna‘s best known actors. He and his sister Maria (1901),

like many other members of the Jaray-family, left Vienna in 1938.

freezeWebsite_jarayfamily-net.pdf 42/98 Sándor‘s daughter Antonie who married Karl Bayer, a general, had two

children - Gertrude (1901) and Ernst (1902).

Julie his second daughter married Karl Seifert, a merchant (son of Johann

Heinrich who built the Seifert billiard-tables) and they had three children -

Emma (1898), Friedrich (1900) and Elisabeth (1902).

Karoline, Sándor‘s third daughter, died very early at the age of 42.

It seems that with the death of Sándor in 1916 (eight years after Sigmund

died) his business couldn‘t be continued. His son Karl was not in the

company, and Sigmund‘s two sons Max and Karl, who ran the company of

their father at that time, both died in 1920 which left no Jaray capable of

running the family business.

Paul Jaray, with his "J-Rad",

wanted to utilize the theories of aerodynamics in the field of bicycle-

constructions. His aim was to minimize the air resistance.

In 1922/23 the Hesperus-Werke at Stuttgart produced about 2000 of those

bicycles in three different versions, designed by Paul Jaray. Mostly in the

Netherlands they were successful. J-Rad 1922, Hansi and Peter Jaray 1923 the production was stopped, when deadly accidents occurred as a

result of material faults.

In his curriculum vitae Paul made a notice on this, which makes clear that it

was not a question of bad construction, but unreasonable economies by

buying raw material of poor quality.
