Hi Ray
I hired a genealogist in Prague and you are right Jacob Bruckman did not study medicine in Prague nor were any records of him in the city. The Somerset county records show that he immigrated from Austria and applied for citizenship in 1842 and was granted citizenship in 1847.
I don't have access to the report you wrote could you please send me a [email protected]
I know that you don't think that Jacob Bruckman is Jewish but I do and here's why. My mother is from the Shetland islands not a hotspot for Jews. All of my fathers relatives came to this continent before the revolutionary war EXCEPT Jacob Bruckman. Very few Jews came to this country before 1850. Out of 978 my cousins identified by the DNA website (23 and me) 175 said they were Jewish. Bruckman is a Jewish name and my Jewish DNA came from somewhere and I think it's him.
