    The Rebbe’s son was the Yaaser Rov, Rav Yoel Ashkenazi, Zt”L.

    Rav Leibe Gruber, Shlit’a, Ruv of Zichron Yoel – Yaas of Lakewood, is a great-grandson. Here’s some pictures from the Rebbe’s great-great-grandson, R’ Yechiel Mechel Gruber’s chassuna – who is named after the Rebbe:

    REB YECHIEL ASHKENAZY WAS A SON INLAW OF HARAV REB AVRUM LANDMAN OF STRELISK. I NEED TO GET IN TOUCH WITH SOMEONE OF THE FAMILY OF HARAV REB AVROM OF STRELISK ZCL IN REGARD TO HIS KEVER IN HUNGARY WHERE HE PASSED AWAY VISITING THE BELZER RAV.

    SG – this is a mistake. Reb Yechiel Ashkenazi was not named Mechel. Rabbi Gruber’s wife is a great-granddaughter of Reb Yechiel Mechel Brandwein of Turka-Strettin.

    Who was the rebbitzen of Rabbi Yechiel Ashkanazi’s father? How was he a descendent of the strelisker?
