Vienna: synagogue death records from 1924

[GrahamSimons]

Hi - maybe Karen again?!

Does anyone know what occupation this reads as? It's a Vienna address for another relative who was there in 1924.

Very many thanks

I think Bankbeamte = bank official

Great, extremely grateful, that looks and sounds right!
thank you so much

This Max Weiss of 21 Liechtensteinstrasse, who I wonder if he is the one I'm looking for (probably wishful thinking, and not the address on his marriage cert of 1924), has a different looking occupation the following year.

Would anyone very kindly be able to help me decipher them both?

Huge thanks
Colee

Second one - Kaufmann - salesman, merchant

Wonderful, thank you!

This is him in 1927... how is he described here?!

..with a 3rd different number in 1928, no idea if that's unusual or not

Reply #8 (and the first image in Reply #11) looks like Hdl. Agentie, Hosenträgererz., (Hosenträgererzeuger)
…which means he was a trading agency and was producing braces. The kind that hold your trousers up. 

Reply #13 is Wäschewarenerz. u. Handelsagent
…which means he was producing underwear and/or bedlinen and was a commercial agent.

Today, "Wäschewaren" would normally be interpreted as underwear, but I’m not sure if it was different back then. And we are talking about Austria, so the terms may have been slightly different. Whatever – he was producing stuff made from fabric, i.e. definitely not an electrician! 

What do you mean by “a 3rd different number”? If you mean the number preceded by a “T”, then I think that’s the telephone number.

Best regards,
Karen

Agree with the number being a telephone: one of the images has a phone icon.

Thank you SO much Karen, really wonderfully helpful and extremely interesting, even this if this isn't the guy. However, I suspect that 'my' guy might not actually have been an electrical engineer. I've also just noticed that in 1926 there were 2 Max entries at this address (could of course be father and son), maybe one of them says 'prof'?

I think I will have to try to look into this Max anyway, to eliminate him, seeing as I seem to be fixated that this might be the one.

I'm also looking to see if I can match with any 'Margit' at the same address as a Max, and that name is much more unusual as it's used in the Hungarian form. There seem to be 2 Margit Weiss at the time in Vienna, but none seems to match a Max Weiss. Sadly. But maybe she used her maiden name so I'll check that too.

Very very many thanks for your help
