Financial Associated Press, December 2 (Editor Liu Rui) Last Wednesday, Eastern Time, a man was found dead after his house in Hollywood, USA was severely damaged by fire.

After the fire broke out, people discovered what was unusual about the fire - the man who died in the fire turned out to be a member of the famous Rothschild family.

Members of the Rothschild family perished in the flames?

It is said that the man who died in the fire was named William Rothschild. A magazine in the house reads his name "wm de rothschild".

Voter registration records show that the person living in the house is 87-year-old William A. de Rothschild. However, another database shows that a 77-year-old man with the same name owns the property.

According to the Los Angeles Fire Department, the fire broke out at about 4:40 pm that day, and it took 45 firefighters 33 minutes to extinguish the fire at about 5 pm.

The identity of the deceased will be officially confirmed by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner later, and the cause of death will also be determined by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner. The Los Angeles Police Department and Fire Department are investigating the cause of the fire.

The Rothschild family is a large Jewish family from Frankfurt, Germany, whose recorded history begins in the 16th century. The Rothschild family has dominated European banking for a long time, with its British and French branches playing an important role in finance and politics, especially in the 18th and 19th centuries. The Rothschild family was once widely considered to be the family with the largest accumulation of private wealth in the world.

Today, the family spans the globe and maintains interests in financial services, energy, real estate and other areas, while several of its high-profile members have become regulars at high society and charity institutions in London, Paris and beyond.

The Rothschild family fortune is said to be worth billions of dollars, but it has now been divided among many heirs.

lives in low-key seclusion in an old Hollywood house?

A real estate listing service described the burned-out home on a hillside in Los Angeles’ Laurel Canyon neighborhood as an 825-square-foot, two-bedroom, mostly brick home. House, partially built in 1937.

Considering that it is located in Hollywood, this small old house is worth about US$1 million (approximately RMB 7.2568 million). It does not seem to be considered the "descendant of the most powerful banking family in the world". The "mansion" where the character's identity should live.

Pictures of the burned house

According to neighbors, Rothschild, who lived in the house, lived a nearly reclusive life and rarely appeared outside, and few people had seen him. Some neighbors even thought the burned house was an empty one because they had never seen him.

According to neighbors who have met him, Rothschild is a friendly man, has an Afghan hound, and claims to be a graduate of Yale University.

William Rothschild's collection of classic cars on the property

Neighbors also mentioned that Rothschild had a collection of classic cars, some stored at his home and some stored at another property across the street. It is said that his property also includes a red Porsche that once belonged to basketball superstar Michael Jordan.

Michael Jordan reportedly owned multiple Porsche 911s over the years, including a red one that sold at auction for $500,000 last year.

It is worth mentioning that in February this year, Jacob Rothschild, the fourth generation of Baron Rothschild and financial tycoon of the Rothschild family, passed away at the age of 87. The Rothschild family released his obituary on February 26, but did not specify the cause of his death.

Before his death, Jacob was the most prominent member of the Rothschild family. William Rothschild, who was buried in a fire last week, is relatively low-key, and it is not clear whether he belongs to the same family branch as Jacob.
