Rebbe in Liadi[edit]

Rabbi Chaim Schneur Zalman was the son of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneersohn (the third rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch), and became a rebbe in his own right for a number of Chabad Chasidim following his father's passing.


After the passing of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneersohn (the third rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch), several of his sons independently assumed the role of rebbe. Rabbi chaim Schneur Zalman assumed the role of rebbe in the Liadi, the same town his great-grandfather, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi (the first rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch), was rebbe. Rabbi Chaim Schneur Zalman was succeeded by his son, Rabbi Yitzchak Dovber of Liadi.[1][2]
