Second husband of Juli Genovefa Kohn, father of Eduard, Nina, Fanny, and Moriz Violin, and of three other children who died in childhood.

Since he died before either Heinrich Schenker’s diary began (1896) or the surviving correspondence between Schenker and Moriz Violin starts (1897), no references to him in the Schenker papers have yet come to light.

The son of Moriz and Valerie Violin, Karl Violin, was named after him.
