Schwabacher Brothers

[edit]

I presume the name relates to the Schwabacher Brothers or others of that family; if anyone knows the nature of the connection, it would be a good addition to the article. - Jmabel | Talk 06:59, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't find any connection - in fact, I couldn't find much on the origin of the name at all. I would think if it was tied to the Schwabacher Brothers then somebody would have pointed it out by now. CosmicPenguin (talkWP:WYOHelp!) 23:24, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, there are other famous Schwabachers, too.. It would be good to know which of them it is named after. As for "somebody would have pointed it out by now": 2 days ago, we didn't have an article on the Schwabacher Brothers at all (quite an oversight). - Jmabel | Talk 19:27, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Albert Schwabacher Sr. owned the Lost Creek Ranch which right about where Schwabacher's Landing is. I can't find any reliable sources that state that the landing was named after him but it would be pretty coincidental if it wasn't. I say find a good reference to Schwabacher's ownership of the ranch and then you can tie it into the article. CosmicPenguin (talkWP:WYOHelp!) 19:59, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Albert Schwabacher Sr. would be a different Schwabacher than the ones in the Schwabacher Brothers article (though possibly related). Thanks. - Jmabel | Talk 04:58, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
