About Rivkeh Sharashevski

"In our times the main Rabbi of Great Soletchnik was Khanokh Sharshevski. He was a scholar and well known in rabbinical circles, not only because of his virtues but also because he was the son of the Gaon “Chofetz Chaim"'s sister. He didn't have sons, and one of his daughters married David Leibovitch who took over after his death." From Voronova YB p. 401
