Alexander family

The Alexander family was a prominent Croatian Jewish family from Zagreb. Alexander family ancestors moved to Zagreb from Güssing in Austria. For a century, the family played an important role in the economic and social life of Zagreb. Until 1941 and the establishment of the Independent State of Croatia the Alexanders were a large clan.

The great-grandparents of the Zagreb Alexanders were Samuel and Julija (née Neumann) Alexander, who had five sons and several daughters. Counting all of their deceased and still living members, including also the descendants of the female line, there were 224 Alexanders in seven generations. Many members of the family perished during the Holocaust. Today a few descendant bears the surname Alexander.[1][2]

gollark: If they could somehow do that (except by making water expensive somehow, but that wouldn't work practically if watery drinks are cheap still), I don't see the problem.

gollark: And there is neat technology like laser launch and space elevators which might eventually happen maybe.
