Agudas Achim known as the Russian Shul was originally Orthodox but at some point become Conservative. Any idea when?
In later years Rabbi David Shochet was the rabbi
Ohab Zedek (OZ or Hungarian Shul) was the more predominately Orthodox congregation in Yonkers. They have since moved to Riverdale.
Does anyone know if rabbi lissauer had any children? Where do they live
Yes. He had two sons. One was a Rabbi in Florida and one in California.
Whos matzeiva is the one that has only English name lissauer. ממשפחת הגרא. ?? Does anyone know any info?
It is the family plot.
I am researching the the connection of lissauer family being ben acher ben from the gra my 3 great grand father pinchos elimech rosenberg had a brother aryeh leib lissauer and we also have the tradition of being ben acher ben. There seems to me a gap of two generations which I have been trying to uncover from Yehuda leib son of the gra to Aryeh leib and pinchos elmicech. I belive aryeh leib and pinchos eliemech father was avrahom mordachi so that leaves one generation to be found. If anyone one has any info the can email me arosenberglmsw@gmail.com
