Efraim ben Shlom Gumpricht aus Friedberg, zum Schwert was also known as Ephraim ben Schlomo (Gumpricht Salomon) Friedberg, zum Schwert. Gumpricht came from Friedberg and lived in the house at Schwert. He died on Friday, October 21, 1569.

Efraim ben Shlom Gumpricht aus Friedberg, whose religious name was Jizchak Efraim S. Schlomo, was married twice: 1. Endlin / Hindlin and 2. Judlin.

One of these wives may have been Endlin / Hindlin Auerbach, who was the daughter of Simon Wolf Auerbach zu Scheuer who was a son of Rabbi Moses Auerbach, of Regensburg & Krakow. However, other sources state that Efraim’s wife was the daughter of Jitzak Nauheim and Chawa Eppstein.

Efraim and Endlin had at least three daughters: 1. Hindlen / Hindchen, 2. Fraidlen-Frajdle, and 3. Rechlen and a son Awraham Schimon ben Jizchak who was also known as Efraim Avraham Shimon ben Yitzchak Ephraim (Wolf Bacharach).

The first daughter, ‘our’ Hindlen, married Moses Loeb Oppenheim, zum Schwert and more on him can be found on the Oppenheim Family page. Oppenheim was married twice. First to ‘our’ Hindlen / Hindchen. Moses’ second wife also bore the name Hindchen, but was the widow of Josef Joswel zur Stege, who died around 1596, and was a daughter of Michel Zunz, and died in Frankfurt in 1624. Moses died in 1626. It can get confusing …

‘Our’ Hindlen died in 1600 and a grandson of hers (possibly Schmuel Sanvel ben Josef Jehuda Oppenheim) wrote about her in the Koblenz Memory book in 1691 as follows:

May God remember the soul of the chaste and the pious, the rabbi’s wife, Mrs. Hindchen, daughter of the Torah-learned Mr. Yitzchak Ephraim, his memory for a blessing, with the souls of Avraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov, Sarah, Rivka, Rachel and Leah, because she hurried early in the morning and in the evening to the house of prayer, and also made wax candles for the synagogue. And her husband gave a gift for charity in the community of Frankfurt, and her grandson also gave for her here for charity, as a reward for this her soul may be bound in the bundle of life with the rest of the righteous men and women who are in the Garden of Eden, Amen Deceased and buried on the 4th day, on the eve of Pesach 360 of the small census, in the community of Frankfurt. And she was called by everyone Hindchen, wife of the foreman, our teacher, the master, Mr. Moshe Oppenheim, his memory is a blessing. [Memorbuch Koblenz, mko-0069 ]

According to the memorial book entry, Hindchen was buried in Frankfurt, but no gravestone has been preserved for her, unlike for her brother, Efraim Avraham Shimon, who died two months after her. She died and was buried on Wednesday, March 29, 1600.

Her sister Fraidlen-Frajdle married Uri-Feibesch Bacharach, zum Waag(e). His name is also given as Fajbesch Bacharach zum roten Hahn. They had two children children: Mosche / Moses and Gumpricht. Their children assumed the name WAAG(E) as a last name and so son Moses became Waag Bacharach. Moses died on June 2, 1600 and was buried in the Jewish Cemetery Frankfurt, Battonnstraße (gravestone no. ffb-503 see image below).

‘Our’ Hindlen had another sister Rechlen who married Mosche Gumprech Wetzlar (No. ffb-1203). She probably married around 1581 and lived in the Golden Apple House.

Her sister was Hindlen and brother Avraham Shimon ben Yitzchak Ephraim (Wolf Bacharach) (above). She was the mother of Moses (below).
