biographical history: Jozef Feldinger was born in Nizni Verecky, Czechoslovakia, on 2 September 1877. He became an assistant at the synagogue and married Dora Katz (b. 1882 in Nizni Verecky, Czechoslovakia). Together they had five children : Etel Feldinger-ova (b. 12/12/1901 in Keretsky, Czechoslovakia, now Ukraine), Manusz Katz (b. 03/11/1906 in Svalava, Czechoslovakia, now Ukraine), Moses Chaim Katz (b. 11/05/1911 in Svalava, Czechoslovakia, now Ukraine), Rosa Malvina Katz (b. 16/02/1913 in Svalava, Czechoslovakia, now Ukraine) and Bertha or Malka Katz.
