I'm one generation after you. R Moshe Lipschitz was my great great grandfather. The rest of the Brizel descendants are mostly Yerushalmim so I'm assuming we're somewhat close cousins!

I know my grandfather has that sefer. What exactly is it?



Reb Moshe lipschitz was my great grandfather!! Hi cousin. I met brizel cousins when I was in seminary.

Shalsheles hazahav is a sefer with a family tree of brizel lipschitz family. We are in it

DH is a 10th descendant of the Baal Shem Tov. From his daughter, Udel. Also from the Degel Machane Efrayim.

From 4 generations, we are the only drum family.

I don't know what yichus I come from, all my grandparents were born in the US during or after WWI.

BT here. This quote that you were just posted is such a bomb to my soul, reading this and feeling actually kind of down.

A number of years ago I posted on here that I was so happy when I learned that a number generations ago I had a great grandmother and great great grandfather who were frum, and one of the amazing women on here told me that my great great grandmother used to light Shabbos candles and daven for me.

If anyone else is reading this thread and feeling like the lone branch on a seemingly barren tree, let’s be mechazek each other. Someone davened for us and our return is bringing them great nachas.


Balm or bomb? I'm hoping my posts didn't hurt you...

FWIW there are many chashuve members of imamother.com who are creating their own legacy of chessed here with real world impact...

Hi 👋 Hershel was my great grandfather too! Actually I’m a younger generation he was my mothers great grandfather and he was still alive when I was born.

So cute to find a closer cousin!!! im wondering if your mother is my first cousin. my grandfather was volvish, he was ben acher ben bechorim for a couple generations but then he went and had a girl first so the chain stopped. are you also his einikl? or from a different child? fun fact he was the same age or younger than his youngest uncle that passed away a few years ago.
I remember when hershel passed away. I was young around 10 but I remember going to the levaya.

Not related, but know many parts of the family.

We knew the F family from crown heights very well.
