Rabbi Aharon was the grandson of Rabbi Shneur Zalman, and a son of the Baal HaTanya's daughter Freida. There was no children by this marriage.

Aharon (aka Arthur or Aaron Lavin) became a secret Frankist under the influence of his uncle Reb Moshe ben Zalman. He travelled with Reb Sender to England and Ireland to visit the Frankist communities. Aharon married a Irish-born Frankist Mary Maher. Around 1810 his wife and he went to Austria leaving the children with the Maher family in Inistioge Kilkenny. He was a Rabbi and married Chaya a daughter of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov around 1816. Their children and descendants were removed from the Rabbinic family trees due to their conversion to Catholicism.

Zaslavski men were tall and goodlooking and Aaron's father or grandfather was a soldier in Jacob Frank's personal troupe. Jacob Frank encouraged his followers to become soldiers, farmers or clergy. The Lavin families of County Mayo and Roscommon are not related to the Kilkenny Lavin- Zaslavski family. The Mayo/Roscommon Lavins are of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry (J2 y-dna) who came to Ireland in the 16th or 17th century. The Zaslavski Lavins are a branch of the Loeb/ Labin/ Loewe of the Davidic Rabbinic families of R1b-L21 y-dna who are noted for their pale skin and blonde (the Alter Rebbe) or strawberry blonde (Rebbe Nachman of Breslov) hair.
