Person · 5605–5667 AM · 1845 CE — 1907 CE
Rabbi Yehuda Tzvi Langner the second of Stretin רבי יהודה צבי לאנגנער השני מסטרעטין
the fourth rebbe of Stretin
Named for the founder of the court, he was the son of Rabbi Uri Langner. He was born on 9 Elul 1845; he took the court after his father's death in 1889.
He died on 14 Iyar 1907 and is buried in Rohatyn.
His sons led the house out of Galicia: Rabbi Moshe settled in Toronto, Rabbi Yitzchak Eizik in New York. So the Stretin court outlived the war, which the community did not.
