Peter Beranc, Jan Zak

Savannah Biographies

The life of Peter Beranc can be roughly divided into three parts. Of the first part of his life it is only known that he was born in Bordeaux, probably in 1827. The second part of his life-from 1850-1870-was occupied with his efforts to build his own business. Relatively little is known of the decade 1850-1860, and very little is know of the decade 1860-1870; he probably alternated his stay in Savannah and in Cuba. 1870 marks the beginning of the third and last part of his life. The years following 1870 were not happy for him; he lost not …

Mordecai Myers, Merry Bodziner

Savannah Biographies

Mordecai Myers (1794-1865) is a bizarre character in the history of Savannah. He appears in many newspaper articles in name only, participates in many organization, committees, and even as a member of the House of Representatives. He had a large family with a great, great-grandson as a modern day descendent. He owned in Chatham County and outside the county. He is a sketchy figure with still many questions to be answered.
