The Holy Rebbe Yisrael Perlow of Karlin-Stolin, known as "the Yenuka" (1868-1921), was orphaned from his father Rebbe Asher of Stolin in his childhood, and was appointed rebbe at the young age of four and a half (!). He was the son-in-law of Rebbe David Twersky of Zlatopoli. He passed away at the age of 53, and was buried in Frankfurt, and has since been known amongst Karlin Chassidim as "the Frankfurter".
‘A Neshama like this comes into the world once in 500 years’ Said his Holy Father Rebbe Asher of Stolin, ”This child will surpass us both” Said his Holy grandfather the Bais Ahron of Karlin to his father.
He left behind six sons – Rebbe Moshe of Stolin, Rebbe Avraham Elimelech of Karlin, Rebbe Yochanan of Lutsk, Rebbe Yaakov of Detroit, R. Aharon of Warsaw and R. Asher of Stolin – and four daughters.
