Look it up |
What do you mean? Tons of people are from Dovid Hamelech. The Noam Elimelech traces his lineage back all the way to Dovid Hamelech in the beginning of his Haggadah.

Really? You're the second person to say something like that in this thread, but I never heard of that idea before, it's an interesting thought. Source?

There is some paper about it, called the Rashi descent. Mathematically based on the amount of ancestors every Ashkenazi Jew has, they are likely to be related to every Jew of the Rashi era, or something along those lines. I think there's no actual proof but it makes sense. We know we're all cousins if you go back far enough, it's just how far do you need to go back...

I knew his secretary from before the war quite well
She was not and never was frum
I wonder if the Aguda has any non frum employees now?

Me too.
I expect there are a lot of Cohen cousins.
Working out the cousin relationship can get confusing though!

Are you aware that she was very controversial?
Very awkward to talk about it.
ETA My cousins are decendents too and they have a very hard time in shidduchim. They marry different Lefkowitz cousins. I guess the family is big enough.
