Looking for information on descendants of Rav Joseph Peimer.
You found one. Write me as to your connection.
Rav Peimer is buried next to Mendel Beilus. Does anyone know if there is a link between them?
No, not that I am aware of.
Rabbi Peimer was a Rav in Slutzk (his father was Reb Mayer’ke also a Rav and Bar Plugte of the Rydba”z). During WWI he lived in Barnowitz and Warsaw then in 1925 he came to the US he served as the Rabbi of Beth El in Boro Park.
I sent a picture of him to Baruch for posting.
My family name is Barnowitz, one of the towns that Rabbi Peimer lived in. Does anyone have any history on this town which I believe was in Germany?
This is the famous ‘yossele slutzker’ of whom it is said that father’s warned their children a long time ago?
My exhusband Joseph Peimer, the grandson of Rav Yosef died many years ago, but for his children, I’m adding to our ancestry.com family tree and am looking for family connections.

Well, I am Peimer
From what I understand Reb Yossel of Slutzk was a Litvak, a prominent Vilozhiner Talmid. I just bought a very rare Chassidic Sefer written by disciple of Reb Levi Yitzchok of Barditchev and the Chozeh of Lublin with his stamp in it. Can a descendant shed some light on this.
I think the Reb Yossel of Slutzk you mean was his grandfather, it looks like they both have the same name, their fathers have the same name Meir, and he was also rov of slutzk.The second picture above is of his grandfather not him
Levi,
The Sefer you bought w/ a stamp is his grandson, who has the same name. It is from a later period after he emigrated to America. He subsequently became the Rav of the Beth-El Shul in Boro Park.
