Is this Rebbe Yoizfa Friedlander, the Lisker Rebbe (d.1971) father?
No, R’ Yoizfa Friedlander, fathers’ name was R’ Tsvi Hirsh the Lisker Rebbe.
Thanks.
If I’m not mistaken, Rav Tzvi Hersh’s son is listed on this site.

He is probably a brother to Rebbe Yoizfa Friedlander ZT”L. It seems they were about the same age.
The Rebbe was actually niftar in Europe and was moved to New York in the 1960s. At the time there was talk of moving Rebbe Herschele Lisker as well.
He’s the Borgoer Rebbe, from town Borgo-Prund, Transylvania, where his father Rโ Yehuda Friedlander and then his brother R’ Elimelech Friedlander served as Rav.
Rโ Menachem lived in Grossvardein (Nagyvarad) as Borgoer Rebbe, his shul Tal Chaim was named from his father-in-law. He died and buried there. I searched the kever years ago, but did not find, and now I see, it was moved.
The inscription of his original tombstone is published at 15-16 p. in book Matzevas Zikaron by Izsak Friedman, what includes a lot gravestones in Grossvardein.
I guess, Rโ Menachem was the father-in-law of Budapester Lisker Rebbe R’ Shlomo Friedlander (son of R’ Tzvi Hersh of Olaszliszka).
Does anybody know the lineage connecting the Maharsha and the Lisker Dynasy? Please respond as soon as possible as this is for an important and urgent project. It is not a direct son to son connection since the Maharsha was a Levi and the Lisker Rebbis are not. You can call me at 347-610-6745. Thank you.
This is an interesting project. Let us know when you get the facts. Rav Chaim Friedlander of Liska (1840-1904) was born in Klienverdan, Hungary and was a sixth generation descendant of the Maharsha. It begins here: The Maharsha was survived by sons and sons-in-law, all of whom were gedolei Torah. His sons were Rav Meshulam Zalman, Rav Yehuda Leib and Rav Avraham. His sons-in-law were Rav Yitzchak Segal Charif, the av beis din of Lutzk; Rav Moshe ben Rav Yitzchak, the av beis din of Lublin; and Rav Shlomo Shapira, author of Mavo Shearim.
The son-in-law, Rav Mosheh Bunims, chief rabbi of Lublin, wrote a commentary entitled Mahadurah Basraโ (1670) on his father-in-lawโs Halachik work.

Shimon Lerner:
Re the Lisker connection to the Maharsha, perhaps you already are aware of this, when R’ Hershel Lisker (R’ Zvi Hersh Friedman) was niftar, he left no sons. His son-in-law, R’ Chaim Friedlander, (“Tal Chaim”) who was descended from the Maharsha, became the next Lisker Rebbe.
R’ Chaim Friedlander’s father’s name was R’ Dovid who was the son-in-law of R’ Yehudah Leib, Moreh Zedek in Kleinvardein….perhaps he was named after the Maharsha’s son R’ Yehudah Leib. (See #8 above)
The name of the father of Rโ Yehudah Leib, the first Moreh Zedek in Kleinvardein, was R’ Elkanah.
(See Shv”T Chasam Sofer, E”H, Siman Samech Vov and Samech Zayin).

What were the names of the Tal Cahim’s children?
I am a cousin to the Lisker. My great grandfather was the brother of the Tal Chaim.
The statement above by โblackleibelโ mistakenly omits a generation. Tal Chaimโs father was Rav Moshe Friedlander who was Dayan of Kleinvardein (Kisvarda). Mosheโs father was Dovid Friedlander. Mosheโs wife was Bracha. It was Brachaโs father who was Aryeh Leib and who was descended from Elkanah and from The Maharsha.
