R. Shlomo Lippman Wäldler (1831-1904) was the grandson of R. Mordechai Schonlanke, disciple of the Chatam Sofer. R. Shlomo was a disciple of the Ktav Sofer in Pressburg and a disciple of R. Azriel Hildesheimer in Eisenstadt. He was the son-in-law of R. Pinchas Leib Frieden rabbi of Komarno, (1802-1873). In 1862 he became rabbi of Kikinda (Nagykikinda, today in Serbia), and from 1865 he officiated as rabbi of Trzcianka. R. Shlomo was orphaned of his father, R.

He writes about himself, "at the behest of my grandfather I travelled to Pressburg, where I was raised in the home of my great master, the rabbi of Pressburg, and studied in his yeshiva from the age of ten until my marriage."
