Adolf (Josef) Borinski
| Notes JRI spells his name Borinsky; I have used Borinski for consistency with subsequent generations and KH's notes. Records of his son Adolf's marriage refer to him by both his German name (Adolf) and by his Hebrew name (Joseph). A Josef Borinski is mentioned in Geshichte der Stadt Sohrau in O-S as a Sohrau merchant trading in spice and cloth in 1840. The store remained in the family's ownership until the early twentieth century. Borinski's shop ca. late 19th century (at the extreme left of the photograph); the name A.Borinski is clearly visible RL, quoted by SF, gives his birth date as 08.05.1776, Delowicz gives 08.03.1776. My 4 x great grandfather.
