Dear Chaim,

The name Medalie struck a chord. Somewhere in the back of my brain there is a vague memory of the name associated with a Haskala writer, perhaps. At the time, many years ago, I remember thinking that it was an unusual Jewish name. Sincerely Ida Selavan Schwarcz

From: Chaim Freedman [mailto:chaimjan@zahav.net.il] Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2010 16:12 Rabbi Hillel MEDALIE, rabbi in Antwerp and Leeds, was the husband of Miriam Silver, daughter of Tillie Bloch, daughter of Getzel Bloch ( a descendant of the Vilna Gaon). Hillel Medalie was a son of Rabbi Shemarya Yehudah Leib Medalie of Moscow. A brother of Hillel, Aharon Shlomo (1897-1943) was a son-in-law of Rabbi Avraham Chaim Halevi Katzenellenbogen whose wife Perel was a daughter of Rabbi Eliyahu Barukh Kamai, Rosh Yeshiva of Mir ( a descendant of Rabbi Avraham Ragoler, brother of the Vilna Gaon). I am seeking descendants of the Medalie family who have information about the descendants of Avraham-Chaim and Perel Katzenellenbogen.
