In 1874, the Constance merchant Jacob Koblenzer and his brother Adolf Koblenzer founded the company "Mechanische Weberei" in Meersburg .Isaak Bernheim was also involved as a partner of Adolf Koblenzer. Later the ways probably separated, because in Augsburg  Isaak Bernheim is mentioned as 2nd owner of a  weaving mill, which was probably founded in 1866 in a smaller scale, and which still became a respectable factory by its later 4th owner Bemberg ( J. P. Bemberg AG. ). Isaak Bernheim had gone bankrupt with the "Mechanische Baumwollweberei" in 1887.

The merchant Herz Seligmann Aschrott of Hochheim am Main owned a vineyard and lands in Hochheim and operated a linen trade in Kassel. In 1838, the family moved to Kassel. The son of Herz Seligmann Aschrott and his wife Regine, Sigmund Aschrott, who was born on June 14, 1826 still in Hochheim, returned to Kassel after his apprenticeship in a colonial wholesaler in Frankfurt, expanded his father's business and thus became the "father of the Kassel textile industry". He thus brought world renown to the Kassel linen industry.

The owner of the cigar factory H. Nördlinger was Eduard Nördlinger, who came from Pflaumloch. He was married to Betty, née Gerstle from Ichenhausen. One son of the couple was Dr. Julius Nördlinger, who studied medicine in Würzburg from 1909 and at the same time joined a field doctor regiment as a volunteer, to which he belonged until the end of the war. Julius Nördlinger received his doctorate in medicine in 1915. Military service was followed by training as a specialist in internal medicine at Augsburg's main hospital. He opened his own practice in 1920 in Augsburg at Bahnhofstraße 5.

The origins of the Augsburg textile factory M.S. Landauer lie in Hürben. There, in 1833, the weaver Moses Samuel Landauer set up his own business and by 1835 was already working on twelve hand looms in the cellar of his house in Hürben. In 1847, he set up his first mechanical business in a leased former oil and sawmill in Neuburg an der Kammel. At that time, the product range included cotton fabrics, bedding, calico, linen, meubling, sackcloth and much more. With increasing mechanization of production, hand weaving decreases.
