in need of verification…

Our earliest known ancestor is Nathan Cahen, born in Nurnburg, Bayern, Germany, in 1445, dying in 1512. His line eventually gave us Mathilde Cahen, great-grandfather Victor’s wife. One on-line source married Nathan to an Oury (forename unknown). But this is without verification and could be doubted as I can’t trace back on the ancestry.com site which threw out that little snippet. A descendant was given the forename Ouri in about 1582, but that’s probably just another coincidence.
