Moritz Reichenbach’s gravestone names the Quedlinburg merchant

This gravestone belongs to Moritz Reichenbach, the merchant connected with Quedlinburg and recorded in Hebrew family evidence as Moshe HaLevi. Mourners placed the stone in the Halberstadt cemetery beside his wife’s plot. It identifies this household, but their relationship to the principal Jacob–Adolf–Paul line remains unresolved.
