Short description: Family of Ashkenazi Jewish descent
The Goldman–Sachs family is a family of Ashkenazi Jewish descent known for the leading investment bank Goldman Sachs. Marcus Goldman, while attending classes at the synagogue in Würzburg, met Joseph Sachs, who would become his lifelong friend.[1] Marcus Goldman's youngest daughter, Louisa, married Samuel Sachs, the son of Joseph Sachs, fellow Lower Franconia, Bavaria immigrant.[2] Louisa's older sister and Sam's older brother had already married. His oldest son, Julius Goldman, married Sarah Adler, daughter of Samuel Adler.[3] In 1882, Goldman invited his son-in-law Samuel to join him in the business and changed the firm's name to M. Goldman and Sachs. For almost fifty years, all the partners came from the extended family.[4]
