In the address book of the city of Nördlingen from the year 1906, the following entry can be found - Lauchheimer Sigmund, leather merchant, Untere Herrengasse B 249 - Lauchheimer Jakob, privateer, Untere Herrengasse B 249.

Historical group photo of a deputation (delegation) of the  "Nördlinger Privilegierte Schützengesellschaft of 1399", probably from a Bundesschießen or Ähnlichem. There must have been a big parade for it (the Bundesschießen took place every three years). In the middle under the flag is Abraham Weiler, who was from 1899  1st Schützenmeister, so chairman of the Schützengesellschaft.

The Benedikt-Elsas-Weg in Remseck-Aldingen is named after the textile entrepreneur Benedikt Elsas (1816-1876), who came from Aldingen, was the first Jew to be able to train as a weaver there and started his own weaving mill in 1844 at Schlößlesstraße 2 (Aldingen Old Schoolhouse).

In 1828, Benedikt Elsas (1816-1876), a Jew from Aldingen, was the first Jew to be able to serve an apprenticeship at the small Heinrich Erhardt cotton weaving mill in Aldingen. In 1838, he earned his master's certificate as a weaver and was now able to weave cotton and linen on his own account. In 1844, he acquired the old Aldingen schoolhouse and, together with his two brothers, operated the rapidly expanding weaving mill "Elsas & Comp." there with six looms in the basement of the house.
