Generally it would maybe be nice to get the english last names (How their spelled in english)(exact) so that we could do research and find descendants etc.

Rav Mordechai (ben Tzvi) Grodzenski lived in Utica.
This is part of a Kol Kora signed by the RJJ and many other Rabbanim.

To Ben Bee Zee-

Do you know who has the ksovim that were found? I am working on publishing R Tzvi Hirsch’s writings and would like to contact them. He apparently has no descendants who are observant or interested in his ksovim.

BZR,
Your “kop arbiet baruch hashem”, thanks for all your informative posts.

If you are saying that the UON published the article they should still have it on record, maybe someone can turn to them for it.

I saw on the white pages that there is arobert grodzensky in wilkes barre,pennsylvania. i dont remember for sure from the biography that i saw a while back but ligt meer in kop that one of his descendants has that name but i could be mistaken. maybe otzar haposkim would want it if they have his other ksovim which i think they do.

someone asked me recently if there are descendants of reb zvi hersh because he found many kesovim of his and he wants to distribute it to them. Does anyone know where they are to be found?

I once saw a long biography (around 15 pages) about Rav Tzvi Grodzensky (I think from the University of Nebraska). He had arichus yomimas he arrived in Omaha in the 1890″s and was first nifter in1948. I remember that they interviewed a son of his (his english name was Francis) and a shochet who had kabolla from rav tzvi hirsh zatzal.the article was written in the 1980″s and his son was still living who also has arichus yomim. It also said that he has many ksovim in Yerushalayim by oyzar haposkim which are waiting to be published. i also heard from a talmid of rav ahron soloveichik zatzal that rav ahron very much recomended his sefer mikve yisroel on hilchos mikvaos. at the end of his mikroei kodesh he has a special kuntress on the problem of making sure that unsalted meat should be washed within 3 days if it was not salted yet (takonas hageonim mentined in the beginning of hilchos melicha) which was a critical issue in the early part of the 1900″s when many times shechita took place in faraway places and sent to the main cities by freight trains and the meat was washed at certain train stops withvarious rabbonim supervising. he also wrotea sefer mili dibrochos on masechta brochos and another on ein yaakov . i think that some of his seforim were published by Ezras Torah as he was a prominent member of the agudas horabonim. zechuso yogen oleinu

They are the matzevos. The pic of the matzeiva at the bottom is just a close up of one of those stones on the ground.

In the middle, what are those two plaques for? Is that for children who were Niftar?

Do you know who took this picture? I lived in Omaha for atleast 5 years. As a matter of fact, I was born there. My father was a Rabbi there.

Rav Chaim Ozer Grodzensky had one daughter that passed away at a young age, there is a sad story behind it.

The Rav had 7 children, 4 sons and 3 daughters.

Sadly, I don?t think so. In addition, I believe that Rav Chaim Ozer Grodzensky also passed away without children.

Did he have any children?
