Family lore is that they had five children:
- Leah (married to Avraham Alexander),
- William,
- Anna (or Hannah) married to a Gottdiener,
- Sally married to someone named Kaufman who was a dry cleaner in Johnstown, PA, and
- Mortiz.

Family lore is that they are from Egres, Hungary.

Based on 1869 Hungarian Census listing for Emanuel Teitelbaum m. Katalin Edli living in Egres [1761]. other children might include:
- Fani b. 1855
- Izrael b. 1857
- Zsanet b. 1864
These children would have filled in the gap in age between Leah and Sally.
This Emanuel Teitelbaum was a judge or magistrate.
They lived in one room on the ground floor
Further research is needed to confirm if this is the correct family.

Based on birth record for Hani TEITELBAUM, he may have been born in Vasarhely. (This may be Hodmezövásárhely, Hungary at 46 degrees 25 seconds north and 20 degrees 20 seconds east which is 95 miles SE of Budapest.)

First name:
- Given as Emanuel on Sallie Teitelbaum’s 1885 marriage record.
- may be Menachem based on translation of Leah’s headstone.
- may have been Mendel (based on Anna Teitelbaum Gottdiener’s death certificate) or Menadium (according to William Teitelbaum’s death certificate.)
- may have been Emanuel, based on 1869 Hungarian Census [1762] (wife Kati)
- Note that Emanuel is a secular name corresponding to the Yiddish name Mendeli and the Hebrew name, Man. [6]

This may also be the Emanuel Teitelbaum who died 3 Nov 1883 in Egres, wife Zali Olper/Alpor.
- This would, however, presume that Zali is his second wife.
- Emanuel & Zali had a child, Izak, in 1882
