About rabbi Isaiah Matmid Bogorad?
Studied in the yeshiva of Rabbi Yechiel Halperin ("Seder Hadorot"), and was considered a talented student. Was one of the greatest opponents of the Hasidic movement ("the cult from Medzhybizh"). Refused to serve as an official rabbi despite many requests, and preferred to study the Torah. [1]
After being widowed from his 1st wife at a young age, he remained celibate for 57 years, before remarrying. [1,2]

About הגאון והצדיק רבי ישעיה מתמיד בהר"ד? (עברית)
למד בישיבת רבי יחיאל הלפרין (בעל סדר הדורות), ובהיותו בן 13 היה נחשב בין העילוים. היה מגדולי המתנגדים לחסידות ("הכת ממעזיבוז"). כל ימיו סירב לקחת את כתר הרבנות למרות בקשות רבות, והעדיף ללמוד בתורה. [1]
היה נשוי בצעירותו והתאלמן, ולאחר חמישים ושבע שנות פרישות התחתן בשנית. [1,2]

rabbi Isaiah Matmid Bogorad?'s Timeline
1691 |
April 1691
|
probably Hlusk or maybe Minsk, Belarus
Studied in the yeshiva of Rabbi Yechiel Halperin ("Seder Hadorot"), probably in Hlusk, or maybe in Minsk. So was probably born there as well. Was 76 years old when his son Yitzhak was born, but 91 when he died in late Apr to early May 1782 (Iyar TaKMaB), about a year after Yitzhak's bar mitzvah. He would be 90 when Yitzhak turned 14, so he must have turned 91 between Yitzhak's 14th birthday in Mar 1782 and his own death in Apr-May the same year.

Strikoka (סטריקעוקע) (near Minsk), Belarus
About 3 years after her marriage to rabbi Isaiah Matmid, and about 57 years before his 2nd marriage - https://www.geni.com/profile/6000000108300011984/events/60000001083... . Rabbi Isaiah Matmid was 15 when they married, so likely 18 to early 19 when she died. Probably mid-late 1709 to early-mid 1710. Most likely summer 1706 for their marriage and late 1709 (around Dec or so) for her death. This would place their marriage close to the husband's 15th birthday, about 3.5 years until the wife died, and then 57.5 years until he remarried. This also suggests the cause of death may be winter famine or disease. Sources:

Smilavichy, Cherven District, Minsk Region, Belarus
His father was 76 when Yitzhak was born, and 91 when he died in late Apr to early May 1782 (Iyar TaKMaB), about a year after Yitzhak's bar mitzvah. He would be 90 when Yitzhak turned 14, so he must have turned 91 between Yitzhak's 14th birthday and his own death. Yitzhak's parents married in "summer TaKCaZ", meaning Jun-Aug 1767, and Yitzhak was born at least 9 mo later. This locks the dates to early June or so for the wedding, early Mar for Yitzhak's birth, and late Mar to early Apr for his father's birthday.
