The Holy Rebbe R’ Chaim Meir of Vizhnitz, author of ‘Imrei Chaim’ [1888-1972] of the greatest Tzaddikim of the generations. Son of the holy Rebbe the Saba Kadisha the Ahavas Yisroel of Vizhnitz and son-in-law of the holy Rebbbe R’ Zev of Rachmestrivk. Rov of Grossverdein, where he held his Chassidic court. After the holocaust he rebuilt the greatness of the court and founded all the Vizhnitz institutions and nourished and developed the Yeshiva founded by his brother the Damesek Eliezre of Vizhnitz. Member of the Mo’etzes Gedolei HaTorah and one of the great leaders and rebuilders of the previous generation. Many of his descendants are from the great holy leaders of our generation’ the Rebbes of Vizhnitz, Belz, Slonim, Dzhikov, and more.

Rabbi Eliyahu Mishkovsky [1917-1982] head of the Yeshiva Gedola and Rov of the towns of Kfar Chasidim and Rechasim. He was crowned Rov of the town on the day he married the daughter of the Gaon Rabbi Mordechai Shlomo Kroll, as his father-in-law had passed away. Disciple of the Geonim R’ Shimon Shkop and R’ Boruch Ber of Kamenitz.

Rabbi Avraham Menaachem Manish Sofer of Szighet, a close disciple of the holy Ahavas Yisroel of Vizhnitz, the Tzaddikim of Vizhnitz and other holy men. The Tefillin he wrote were highly sought after. The holy Atzei Chaim of Szighet, as soon as his son the holy Berach Moshe of Satmar was born, sought to order and purchase Tefillin by R’ Manish Sofer – for the Bar Mitzvah that was to take place in 13 years. The Berach Moshe himself did the same for his sons, the Rebbes of Satmer Shlit"a.
