About R' Yakov Yukel Horowitz, ABD Brody

"The rabbinical judge, teacher, and rabbi of the "Mochrei Kemach" ("Wheat Merchants") group in Brody." -- Rabbis of Stanislav of the Horowitz Family, Notes From The Family Tree, Translated by Jerrold Landau http://www.jewishgen.org/Yizkor/stanislawow-arim/staph064.html

"Rabbi Jacob-Jokel Horowitz headed the Rabbinate of Brody for 11 years starting in 1736. Due to the rabbi's verdict against the daughter of an important family, who had been charged with adultery before a civil court, Rabbi Jacob was forced to leave Brody and moved to Glogau, where he served as rabbi from 1747." -- The Jewish Settlement of Brody (From “Pinkas Hakehilot”) http://www.jewishgen.org/Yizkor/brody/broe019.html
