    He defiantly had a daughter, because there is a Rabbi Yeruchom buried in Wellwood and on his matzeiva it says that he was a SIL of the Rebbe.

    The Rebbe’s brother Rebbe Aryeh Mordechai the Shinever Krakow Rebbe is buried in the Sanzer Ohel (in Sanzs) along side his father Rebbe Moshelea after suddenly passing away while visiting. The Rebbe was the SIL of Rebbe Yisroel Yaakov of Volove (a descendant of the Yismach Moshe).

    Asher,
    Very interesting, it is mentioned that the name “Derech Yisroel” for a higway (?) between Tzfas and Miron is named after him.

    I find two children of his;
    1) Binyumin Kenigsberg and lawer
    2) Yisuucher Dov Kenigsberg

    David Lander is the father of the late Dr. Bernard Lander, founder of Touro College.

    Sholomo Sklar שו”ב – not sure if this part is included into the Shiniv or else he’s buried adjacently.

    הבחור יהודה ליב בן צבי יפפע – would appreciated any info on him.

    Hi everyone, including Asher. Yisroel Koenigsberg, who gave the money to build Derech Yisroel (and for whom the road was named) was my grandfather. He has many many descendents. My father, Isaac Koenigsberg, had 5 siblings: Annie, Augusta, Benjamin, Joshua and Herman (aka Haim). It is a very large family and I have a lot of cousins, mainly in Israel.

    My grandfather and grandmother are buried next to the Rebbe, along the footpath beside his tomb.
