lubavitcher yeshivah for 70

Is there a live hookup?
Who writes this stuff? How could the Rosh ha yeshiva been the grandson of Chasam Sofer????
The Feigelstocks are descendants of the Chasam Sofer. He could not have been a grandson. At most, a fifth generation einikel. Boruch Dayan Hoemes.
WHEN THey cam e to the USA after the war one brother became lubavitch and lives in montreal. the other 2 became the litvish type.
All siblings of the family are very chashuv.
BTW he was not a grandson of the chasam sofer. He was a great great grandson. I guess descendant is the idea.
The Chasam Sofer was his mothers fathers mothers father.
