R’ Chaim was born in Ujhely, he was a grandson of Ujhely Sefard Rav R’ Yosef Moshe Teitelbaum, and was descendant of the Yismach Moshe of Ujhely, and the Divre Chaim of Zanz.
His brothers: R’ Yosef Moshe (Marosujvar Rav), R’ Zvi Hirsh (Veitzen Dayan), R’ Eluzer (Ujhely Sefard Dayan), and R’ Yecheskel Shraga Meisels (Radvany Rav, buried in Ujhely).
