This photo was taken by the chasuna of Rabbi Aaron Hersh Landau of Veretzky Z”l.
Rabbi Aaron Hersch Landau of Veretzky z”l married the daughter of Rabbi Yechiel Mechel Brandwein of Stretin-Turka z”l & his (2nd) Rebetzin Rivka Necha (nee Kondel).
Rabbi Yechiel Mechel had 4 children with his 2nd wife. 1) Stretener Rebetzin (Flam). 2) Veretzkier Rebetzin (Landau) 3) Skverer Rebetzin (Twersky). 4) Rabbi Aaron Yakov Brandwein of Stretin z”l.
After the petira of Rabbi Yechiel Mechel, his rebetzin married Rabbi Tzvi Hersh Yaar, mechaber sefer “Chamudei Tzvi”. By Rabbi Landau’s Chasuna The Kalla’s father wasn’t alive anymore and her step father Rabbi Yaar was the עומד מצד הכלה. Rabbi Yaar was a very well known מרביץ תורה in the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Before the war he served as Rav in many shtetlech such as Kunstantin, Reivitz etc. His whole family from his 1st marriage perished in the war.
I am Ashkenazi Jewish. My Paternal great-grandmother IE My Father’s Mother’s Mother had a maiden name that is the same last name. Rose Brandwein. All we know is she likely immigrated directly from likely Poland but are not sure as she was the first generation of her line to come to the USA. It was a traditional Jewish family and she married Joseph Bergman and had a family with 13 children of which I think 11 survived to adulthood, in her very old age my grandmother still had one sibling alive, great aunt Elsie, and a brother Oscar lived to 97 and I met him as a child. If this is of any help to the family tree I am glad to contribute. My Grandmother was Celene (Bergman) Rheinstrom. She passed in 2003 at the age of 90 years old and was born in 1913. So presumably as I have no date of birth for Rose, she was likely born in the 1890s, and may have been a sibling or cousin to Baruch.
She was known for personal warmth, and having red hair for which she was named Rose.
