MT's research and Centre for Jewish History: Nothmann Family Collection, 1978 say he was born on 12/03/1786 and died on 05/05/1847, whereas Friedrich Nothmann, quoting his gravestone in "Die Geschichte der Familie Nothmann", says he was born in 1788 and died on 12/03/1847 aged 58 years. JRI-Poland records his death on 14/03/1847, aged 58 years.

Described as a leather trader at the birth of Pine, and as a butcher at the birth of Henriette, he is also described as HaCohen (the priest) on his son Simon's gravestone.

JRI-Poland lists a son, Jochem, born 15/03/1836; this date is incompatible with the birth of his sibling Heymann, who birth is not recorded in JRI-Poland, but is dated as 20/02/1836 by his son Berthold.

JRI-Poland records the family's moves from Potempa to Wuestenhammer, Lublinitz on 01/04/1824 and back to Potempa exactly three years later. These records name Salomon's father and wife as Schaye Loebel Nothmann and Amalie Brieger respectively, and name the accompanying children.
