About Reb Dovid Maggid HaKohen Katz Radimishle Ruv Kohn, ABD Radomysl and Talmid of the Chozeh M'Lublin

In 1805, a Jewish scholar and "Zadik", Rabbi David Magid Hacohen (formerly the Rav in Kolbascowa after the Apter Rav), settled down in the town of Radomysl. According to the testimony given by the Chozeh of Lublin, R. David Magid Hacohen was a descendant of Ahron the High Priest. A line of his offsprings, highly orthodox Hasidim, stayed on in Radomysl until they were wiped out by the murderous hands of the accursed Nazis.

Rabbi Baruch Dovid Kahana, one of his his grandchildren, arrived at Eretz Israel in 1873. (As a follower of the Hasidic congregation of Sanz, he had been told by the righteous Divrey Hayim, blessed be his memory, to migrate to Israel). They settled in the town of Zefat where some of them still live. He wrote Sefer Chibas H'aaretz. The Cahana family of Zefat and also the Brizils of Jerusalem and Bnei Brak.

Also R' Mosh'l Kohn Bikowsker who died in the hands of the Nazis “may their names be wiped out” in Radomysl, R' Pinchas Kohn the cantor and his children, Elimelech Kohn, Ziporah Torn and their family and the grandchildren of R' Nutele Blass.
