Rav Sholom Shachna of Lublin zt"l
Rav Sholom Shachna of Lublin was the teacher and father-in-law of the Rema. His grandfather and namesake was the Rav of Neustadt and the Godol HaDor (spiritual leader of that generation) in Austria, who, along with the Maharil, founded the minhagei Ashkenaz that are still prevalent until today. He established the Lublin Yeshiva in 1515 and was succeeded by Rav Shlomo Luria, the Maharshal.
