The largest Polish website about French cars, Francuskie.pl, has released new and astounding information about Andre Citroen, the founder of the Citroen brand. It turns out he has Polish roots and his grandparents are buried in the cemetery of Polish capital It seems that the relationship between Andre Citroen and the capital city of Warsaw is very close to what we have.

Andre Gustave Citroen was born in Paris on February 5, 1878, as the fifth child of Louis Citroen and Masha Amalia Kleinman and was raised as a Versovian. Andre’s father and grandfather, Baron Limonman, was born. The Dutch family of Andrei’s grandfather sells exotic fruits However, as time went on he was involved in jewelry and diamonds. Later, Barend Limonman and his family moved to Paris. Due to the difficulty in limonin pronunciation, they decided to change their surname to Citroen. The great mother of Andrea Citroen, Masha Amalia Kleinman, Isaac and Miriam Kleinman’s parents lived in Warsaw during the division of the Kingdom of Poland. This time is difficult for Poland and other countries.

Mr. and Mrs. Kleinman have eleven children: Bernard Salomon, Julia Amalia, Ballina Eleanora, Anna Flora Tecla, Jonas Michael He owns a house on 49th Street Krelevska, known as “Northern District” and occupies an eight-room apartment on the second floor. The house didn’t exist until our time (GPS coordinates 52.237067, 21.003756). The first day of World War II was affected by a bomb because it was in the center of Warsaw. At the time of the uprising in Warsaw (1944), it was besieged. Indeed, the silence of insurgents fought the invaders in the defense of the city, and today there are no signs of its creation.

Izak Kleinman was a merchant and monopolized the sale of salt from mines in the Polish Empire of Wailikzka. Thanks to this adventure, they were rich at that time. Even being the father of eleven, money is not a problem for him, so he looks all over Europe to find a suitable husband for his eight daughters. He is a free, modern, universal Jew who speaks German more fluently than Polish. He feels better in Berlin or Vienna than in Warsaw. Kleinman’s daughter is thoroughly educated, they know a foreign language, they are beautiful, rich, and soon their father meets a Dutch, German, Jewish, French, educated gentleman and a complex in Soon Amelia is the most beautiful and lucky woman because she married Louise Citroen, a Dutch banker.

The wedding of Maja Amalia and Louis Citroen took place in Warsaw on 31 October 1870 at the Hasidic Prayer House. The couple lived in Paris. They have five children: Jean (1872), Hugh (1873), Fernande (1874), Bernard (1875), and, of course, the youngest son Andre (1878).

Amaliya, who went to Paris, often named the Kingdom of Poland, fleeing her family and the lands of Vistula. Contact with others in Warsaw was a letter. The interesting fact of this contact is that Amalia wrote a letter to her family in German in 1884 when Andre Citroen was only 6 years old. His father, Louis Citroen, committed suicide during a nervous breakdown. During this time, everyone in the family, work, and jewelry business fall in Amalia. However, she is a strong woman who never gives up and tries to do whatever it takes to handle all the hardships and challenges.

Meanwhile, in Warsaw in 1888, the powerful Isaac Kleinman died. He was buried next to Gusov Horowitz, who died prematurely on Garcia Street in a Jewish cemetery in Warsaw, which is now Ocopova street.

This was the last time she visited Poland. She comes alone, leaving her children at home. This is the last big gathering of the Kleinman family. The gathering is full of rich women in large hats with fur and rusty outfits that decide to attend a funeral. They bring luggage that is full of fur edges and expensive gifts. In the funeral service, according to the tradition of Judaism, the order is not an end to grief and lamentation. But this despair is just a show.

At that time, people separated, allowing Andrea and her cousins ​​to pass on. Going to Janina so they will soon visit the palace and gardens.

Aunt Malia loves her very much and takes her everywhere, buying a friendly fashion house, a museum in Paris, lots of beautiful things and clothes. He also promised to guide Janina’s future, but as it always happened, life played with Janina. Suddenly, Janina wanted to tell her mother about his plans for the future.
