How can it be that he died at 1748 but his famous get (Divorce Bill) in Cleves was in August 1766 (after he died) ??

Noted and adjusted. See Sources for source details.

Thanks, Adam. Can you attach the draft tree or link to it in the source?

Yitzchok Kaplan I purchased a scan of the Lipschuetz file from the National Library of Israel. Due to the copyright protection conditions made by the NLI, I cannot publish any part of the document publicly. If you can provide me with an email address I'll send you privately the biographical entry referred to as being the source of R' Ysroel's death year. As an easier alternative, I have added as a second source the Ysroel b. Eliezer entry from the Encyclopedia Judaica and posted the relevant part of that article as an image to the profile.

Thanks for adding the EJ source.
