    Reb Ahron Tzvi Friedman was originally from Stovisk, Poland, he came to the US as early as 1854 – 5514 to NYC as a Shochet (Ritual Slaughter).

    He was in the midst of quite a few issues on Shechita between Rabbi Mittleman and Hrav Asch.

    Here is a nice blog about Rabbi Friedman:

    So maybe we can have the living Isaac descendants to read out the matzeiva and redo it as they did with their grand father Reb Shachna’s marker 😉

    My father was Aaron H. Friedman (1892-1955) his father was David Friedman, his father was Daniel Friedman and his father was Rabbi Aaron Zebi Friedman. I believe this is the correct chronology but I may be wrong. If anyone can help please contact me. Lawrenc e Friedman
