Sigmund Stricker was head and co-owner (with brother Josef) of S. [Salomon] Stricker & Sons, a leather tannery, in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szombathely '''Szombathely'''], Hungary.

''From one of Sigmund Stricker's grandchildren'': Sigmund Stricker, with his brother, inherited a leather business including factory somewhere in Hungary (it could be in Slovakia, as parts of Slovakia were considered by the Austrians to be Hungarian). It was typical for Jews who had business dealings in Vienna in the early part of the 19th century to live in Bratislava, with its large ghetto, as it was quite difficult, I understand, and also expensive, toget official permission to reside in Vienna. But Pressburg was rather close and one could get a temporary pass on business and stay with friends or relatives. From what I know leather and fur trading was a very typical Jewish business in early times, and the next step up the social and financial ladder was to have a factory so as to be able to go from trading to buying carcasses from farmers and tanning the leather and dealing in it. Of course they movedto Vienna when this became possible, I think they lived first in the 2nd Bezirk (the Leopoldstadt or Matze-Insel) and later moved to a very extensive apartment in the Berggasse in the 9th Bezirk (the street where Sigmund Freud also lived).
Sigmund died (after a long illness) on 28 March 1928, aged about 76, in Wien. Per http://www.friedhoefewien.at he was buried on 31 March 1928 in Wien, Feuerhalle Simmering: 1-1-2-13.
