Bundle of Responsa Signed by Rabbi Asher Lippman Zarchi, a Leading Rabbi in the US – 1894
Bunch of manuscripts of responsa and novellae handwritten and signed by Rabbi Asher Lippman Zarchi, Radyvyliv (Poland), 1883-1886. Des Moines, Iowa (USA), 1894.
The responsa are part of Rabbi Asher's book of responsa on Yoreh Deah and Even HaEzer. These responsa deal with questions on the manner of writing the name of the city Des Moines in a get, a question of the acquisition a house which housed avodah zara to be used as a Beit Knesset [in that responsum, he copies a page from the responsum of Rabbi C. Y. Videravitz of Moscow, sent to him]. And more.
Rabbi Asher Lippman Zarchi (1864-1932), one of the foremost rabbis in the US was born in Kovne. He was a relative of the renowned Rabbi Shimon Zarchi, a rabbi in Tovrik, Vilnius and Jerusalem. Studied at the Volzhin Yeshiva and was ordained by leading Lithuanian rabbis. From c. 1883, he lived in the village of Radyvyliv (a village near Zembrov in the Łomża region), and according to these writings, it is apparent that he served in its rabbinate. In 1893, he reached the US and served in the rabbinate of Brownsville Brooklyn and in 1894, was accepted as rabbi of Des Moines, [Iowa]. In 1903, he moved to serve as Rabbi of Louisville, Kentucky. There he filled the position of rabbi with authority and his words were highly honored. He was one of the Charedi rabbis who founded the Association of Rabbis of the USA and Canada. See attached material.
Rabbi Chaim Ya'akov Viderowitz (died 1911), served as rabbi of the Lubavitcher Jews in Moscow. In 1893, he reached the US and served in the NY rabbinate for the Chassidic sector and was called "General Rabbi of the Sefardi community in the US".
