Goldmark Family

The Goldmark family was a Hungarian Jewish family with roots in the 19th century Austro-Hungarian empire, and like most of the educated Jewish families of those times, they spoke German amongst themselves, as it was considered the language of the educated people. Two of the most well-known members of this family were the composoers Carl Goldmark (1830-1915) and his nephew Rubin Goldmark (1872-1936).

The patriarch Rubin Goldmark (senior) was presumably born in 1799 and died in 1868. He was cantor at the Jewish congregation of the Hungarian town of Keszthely, which was a favored summer destination for elegant visitors at the very west end of Lake Balaton.
