Koson (Hasidic dynasty)

[citation needed] Yehosef married Sara Yittel, the daughter of Meshulim Feish Segal-Lowy I of Tosh and authored the sefer Bnei Shileishem (and is therefore sometimes referred to by its name).

[1] Chaim Shlomo Rottenberg married Raitze, daughter of Asher Yashaya Rubin [YI] of Kolbuszowa, Poland, and authored the sefer Shmuah Tovah.

[3] In 1920 however, nine years after assuming the position of rebbe, Chaim Shlomo died, and was succeeded by his younger brother (and son-in-law), Yisrael Tzvi Rottenberg, known by the name of his sefer, Ohr Moleh.

[4] He was succeeded by five sons: Meir Yehosef in Borough Park, Brooklyn and, later, in Linden, New Jersey; Moshe Shmuel in London; Naftali Tzvi in Flatbush and, later, in Hillcrest, New York; Avraham Baruch in Lakewood Township, New Jersey; and Chaim Yehuda Leib (Chaim Leibish) in Monsey, New York.

Although the community had started very small, it grew quickly and currently includes families living in nearby Roselle, Cranford, Clark, and Rahway.
