(Karlin): n.d
Son-in-law of R. Mordechai Yoseph of Zlatipola, R. Avraham Elimelech Perlow of Karlin-Pinsk (1891-1942) succeeded his father, R. Yisroel, the “Yenukah” of Stolin, as Rebbe in 1921. He visited Eretz Israel a number of times where he established a Yeshiva and attracted a large following. Despite the entreaties of his Chassidim to stay in the Holy Land, he returned to Poland in 1939 just prior to the outbreak of World War II. He stated that although he saw dark clouds looming he felt obligated to return to Poland be with his family and his Chassidim. He was murdered along with his children by the Nazis.
