    This Rebbe was my grandfather and the first Chassidish Rebbe in Los Angeles. His shule was in Boyle Heights on Soto Street. There are now many Kosonier Rabbunim in Boro Park, all related in different ways to the Kosner Ruv from the town in Hungary. Thank G-d we have replenished.

    Are you sure it’s not 1946?

  • 7 Miller // May 8, 2009 at 9:01 pm

    You are right Baruch, my conversion was a mistake

    Reb Moshe Shmuel had a son Rabbi Ephraim Asher Rottenberg who joined his father in 1938 in LA and served there as a Rabbi, while his family were left in Europe and perished in WWWII.

    He remearied to Chana Twersky-Rottenberg, but they had no children.

    Rabbi Rottenberg passed away 1996 and his Library was donated to the National Library in Israel.

    Any idea where he was a Rabbi, where he was buried and who his wife was?

    Here is an essay Rabbi rottenberg wrote under the title “Reward and Punishment”

    His wife was a daughter of Reb Yitzchok Twersky of Azarnitz-Keshinov (he had another son Reb Aharon who past away recently in LA). She was originally married to another Rothenberg also a Kosonyer einikel from which she had a son David.

    Reb Moishe Shmiel came over before the war. He moved to California because he had Asthma. The air was better for his condition. He has a surviving grandaughter in Boro Park, that came over after the war, Moras T.K., aishes Reb Yechiel z”l, and Reb Meshulem Rottenberg (18th Avenue in BP) is also a grandson. All the Rottenbergs spelled with a double “T” are related and they are Kossoner ainechlech.

    Does the Rottnenberg family still own the Kosson shul in Phelam Parkway?
