Rabbi Shmuel Heller (1803-1884) was the Rabbi of Tzfas and a leader of the Ashkenazi community there for more than 40 years. He was great-grandson of Rabbi Yom Tov Lipman Heller, author of the Tosafos Yom Tov, and his grandfather Rabbi Avraham Peretz was a follower of the Chozeh of Lublin, who took Rabbi Shmuel as a student. He moved to Israel and settled in Tzfas, and became close to the Admor Rabbi Avraham Dov of Ovritsh (the Bas Ayin), whom he succeeded in the rabbinate after his death. He was considered a proficient healer using the flora of Israel, and he succeeded to rehabilitate Tzfas after the destruction wrote by an earthquake. His grandson was the Admor Toldos Aharon Rabbi Avraham Yitzhak Kahan.
