In 1937, the Reisler family (father Baruch and his children Max, Erna and Arno) moved from Marktstra;e 6 to Wilhelm-Frick-Stra;e 7.

Since 1934 Baruch Reisler (*18. August 1894 in Bolechiw [pol.: Bolechów, engl.: Bolechau]) lived with his three children Max (*05. März 1910), Erna (*13. May 1912) and Arno (*21. July 1919) in the Marktstra;e 6.
After the death of Mrs. Reisler the family moved from Gera to Greiz, where already the related family Wiesenthal lived. Baruch Reisler opened a fast-soled establishment in the Marktstra;e 6.

The Wiesenthal family lived at Brückerstraße 10/12 in the 1920s. This included the father Karl (Chaskel) Wiesenthal, his wife Marie (Miriam, *1898) and their joint children Josef (*1923), Hella (*1924) and Lily (*1932).

In 1934/37 Moritz (*1898) and Irene Recher (née Grünberg, *1901) lived at Brückenstra;e 14 with Mrs. Grünberg, Irene's mother. Moritz Recher was a soldier in World War I in 1916 and subsequently spent 25 months as an Italian prisoner of war. The Rechers owned a shoe store in Zwickau and moved to Greiz to open a shoe store there as well. During the November pogrom, Moritz Recher was maltreated and his wife Irene was admitted to the clinic of a Dr. Salzwedel with cuts. Mr. Recher was deported to Buchenwald, but was able to return to Greiz later.

The synagogue was located in the inn Zum Schwarzen Adler, später Zu den zwei Schwarzen Adlern, and could accommodate 51 visitors. It was continued after Philipp Aaron's death by his son Joseph Philipp Aaron.
