Rabbi Aleksander Sender Eichenstein

Sender was the son of Rabbi Yitzchak Eisik Eichenstein (born 1740; died 26 February 1800) of the town of Safrin, from where Sender's family name originates.[1] He was a disciple of Yaakov Yitzchak of Lublin and died at the age of 47.

Rabbi Yitzchak Eisik Safrin

After Sender's death, his son, Rabbi Yitzchak Eisik Yehuda Yechiel Safrin (born 13 February 1806; died 28 April 1874), was raised by his uncle (his father's brother), Rabbi Tzvi Hirsh Eichenstein (born 1763; died 22 June 1831) of Zidichov.[2]
