Existența unei înregistrări aflate pe situl de mai sus, https://www.yerusha-search.eu/viewer/metadata/RIN-0238/1/a Colecției personale a inginerului Gheorghe Lenghel din Arhivele de la Baia Mare, mi-a permis să regăsesc această informație pe care, fără a o ignora, nu avusesem timpul să o notez. Mulțumesc celor care au acumulat aceste informații pe un sit genealogic evreiesc.

Familia Lenghel, din care mă trag pe linie paternă, este o familie de români, originari din nordul Maramureșului, probabil cu ascendențe poloneze. Sigismund Lenghel, bunicul meu pe linie paternă, a fost preot greco-catolic. Nu putea fi de origine sau religie iudaică. A participat, ca român, la Marea Adunare națională de la Alba Iulia, există credențialul publicat prin care fusese delegat de cetățenii din Copalnic Mănăștur. Sigismund a fost căsătorir cu Sofia Colceriu, fiica unui medic, care se pare a vut șapte sau nouă fete. Fiul său, Alexandru a preluat numele mamei sale, Sofia Colceriu/Culcer, ca să nu se stingă această ramură a familiei, care nu mai avea descendenți masculini. Fiul meu, Matei Alexandru Culcer, relansează descendența feminină dominantă. Are două fiice, Sofia și Eva. Nu știu dacă vor mai avea un alt copil, eventual băiat. Dan Culcer, 22 sepembrie 2024

Scope and content:

This fonds comprises documents from between 1775 and 1978, collected by the mining engineer Gheorghe Lenghel. The documents refer to the history of the mining industry in the Maramureş area and to the conditions of the miners’ lives. The most important piece of the collection is the manuscript of the mining counsellor Johann Sartori from 1775 concerning the history of the mining in Baia Mare and surrounding area from 1535 to 1751, based on 512 documents from the archives of the Royal Chamber for Mining in Kosice. Among the information in this fonds there is a lot of data on mine owners and leaseholders, many of whom were Jewish. Other records deal with the sanitary organisation and health problems of the miners from this region, mentioning Jewish physicians involved in these fields.
