Another Rav from Toledo was Rav Nechemia Katz, the brother-in-law of Rav Moshe Feinstein.

As Rabbi Fine of Detroit writes in his book “Anshie Shem” (Avilable on http://www.hebrewbooks.org) Rav Nechamia Kats was the SIL of Rav Silverman who passed away at age 62, his daughter was still not married at the time, and the Kehilah comiited to hire for Rav the one who will marry the late Rav’s daughter.

When Rav Silverman passed away, 3 prominent Rabbis (Siver – Cincinati, Aishishkin – Detroit, and Stollman – Detroit) undertook a rotation to be with the Kehila in Toledo untill they get a replacment Rabbi.
See the entire story in Hapardes, upon his passing:

Yitzy,
Is your grandmother Eta the wife of Reb Nechemia Katz who succeeded his FIL Rabbi Silverman in Toledo?

Rabbi Silverman married Nechama Bregman in Windowy, Lithuania in 1898, in 1906 he was installed as Rabbi in Toledo OH where he stayed till his passing in 1934.
In 1928 he visited Israel and stayed there for a while, he planned on permenantly miving there after retirement, but his early death at age of 64 came before he could fulfill his wish.

YD Miller,
Rabbi Silverman married Bluma Kantor in 1894. They were living in Russia before they came to America. I am also a descendent, I’ve done quite a bit of genealogy.

yitzy,
I would be interested in talking to you. You can contact me at bennyk86@gmail.com.

Ben,
If you are a descendant you probably have better sources and more accurate information, but my source for the above information was from Hameilitz July 21 1898, but it might very well be another Yitzchok Moshe Silverman, see link (underlined):
