The Ransohoff family is a German Jewish family originally from Westphalia, Germany. The progenitor of the family, Levy Abraham Ransohoff (1761-1845) was a wealthy Westphalian merchant, who had four sons. Each of his sons occupied key positions in the Frankfurt Parliament, became notable doctors and academics, and his eldest son, Sigmund even received a knighthood. In the beginning of the 20th-century, the majority of the family immigrated to Cincinnati, United States, where they rose to prominence in medicine and the arts.[1][2]
