## Narrative
Rosa Lichtenheim was born 19 May 1866 in [[Galizien]] (Galicia), then the Austro-Hungarian crownland of the partitioned Polish lands; she also appears as Róża and as Tauba Rajzel.[^auto] Her parents were [[Dawid Lichtenheim]] and [[Róża Rappaport (b.1814)]], and she had at least one older sibling, [[Aleksander Lichtenheim (b.1848)]].[^auto]
She married [[Herman Felix (b.1853)]] (also recorded as Hersch Jona and, later, Hyman), who had been born in [[Lviv]] in 1853; the couple were roughly thirteen years apart in age.[^auto][^herman] Herman worked over the years as a salesman, peddler, and cap maker, and headed the household in which Rosa is recorded as wife.[^herman] The MyHeritage-sourced record on Rosa's profile lists her marital status as married, her relation to the head of house as wife, and her occupation as none — the standard census-style entry for a married woman keeping the home.[^auto]
The family emigrated to the United States and settled in [[New York]]; several of the children were born there.[^auto][^children] Rosa and Herman had a number of children together, including [[Solomon Felix (b.1879)]], [[Daisy Dolly Mendelson (b.1892)]], [[Mae Mary Felix (b.1895)]], and [[Rudolph Felix (b.1897)]].[^auto] The birth of daughter [[Daisy Dolly Mendelson (b.1892)]] in New York in 1892 places the family in the city by the early 1890s.[^daisy] Herman was also married to [[Sobel Holzer]] and had further children ([[Samuel Seinwel Felix (b.1877)]], [[Rachel Felix (b.1879)]]); the vault does not record whether that union preceded or followed his marriage to Rosa. [?][^herman]
Herman died in New York on 14 February 1922.[^herman] Rosa died there about two years later, on 20 March 1924, at the age of 57.[^auto]

## Research
*(your reasoning — preserved across every rebuild)*
## Evidence
## Open questions
- Needs browser pass: the cited 1889 Lwów record (JRI-Poland index → AGAD scan, akt 96/1889, image PL_1_300_643_0051.jpg at http://agadd2.home.net.pl/metrykalia/300_new/album/643/) resolves to an image-only viewer not readable via fetch. Confirm what event it records for Rosa (marriage to [[Herman Felix (b.1853)]]?) and add the scan to Evidence if it is a definite match.
- Order of [[Herman Felix (b.1853)]]'s two marriages (to Rosa vs. [[Sobel Holzer]]) is unrecorded; clarify which children belong to which union.
