POGARELL families and family name from Silesia Researching POGARELL families and family name from Silesia *Anna Pogarell* (Frau Jorde) (*1871, *Langendorf* + 1945 *Dresden* ) Homepage: https://sites.google.com/site/genealogy*pogarell*/<https://sites.google.com/site/genealogypogarell/> <https://sites.google.com/site/genealogypogarell/> My grandmother, Anna Pogarell was born in *1871*. XII. 9. in “*Langendorf”, Silesia*, (*Wielowies ? or Bodzanow/Ziegenhals?)* Husband: Robert *Jorde (b: *1899. VI. 4. in Hirschberg, today Jeleni in the Czecz Republic) Marriage: 1899. jun. 4. Childrens: Robert, Brno, Elisabeth and Walter Jorde were born in *Leobschütz *, btw. 1900-1910: today Gluczicze, Poland.) Than they lived in Hungary. In 1944 Anna Pogarell travelled to *Dresden* “to the relatives” where she died in *1945 *about May at the first days of the russian occupation. This is the all, so *I don’t know, who were the parents of my grandmother.* I’m corresponding with some people from Germany who're bearing the Pogarell family name: it seems that every lineage is from Silesia: the majority doesn’t know the exact location. (Tschöplowitz/Czepielowice comes up in several cases.) So I would be extremely grateful if somebody would share informations about the origin and the history of the Pogarell surname and families, because I came to a halt in my research of my ancestors.
