The couple had three children:
Abraham Model was born in Gunzenhausen in 1789. He was a merchant and pot ash boiler. His first wife Blümle was the daughter of Elias Moses from Pflaumloch. In 1821 Abraham was given the upper half of the house at Auergasse 1 by his mother. He had two sons by his second wife, Ida Stein. Löw, the first son was born in Gunzenhausen before 1830. Joel Abraham was born in Gunzenhausen on 06.03.1830. He was a merchant by trade. In September 1864 he married Mina Wassermann, born 08.10.1836 in Schwabach.
Three children were born of this marriage :

Moses and Jüdele Schuler’s third child was a daughter, unfortunately we don’t know her name. But she was married to Joel Hirsch Moses, born in Schwabach.
Until now we haven’t been able to trace any descendants from the Schuler family.
