Chaim Elozor Wax
Chaim Elozor Wax〔Also spelled Waks or Wachs. In Avotaynu XXIV Number 2 (Summer 2008), Dr. Neil Rosenstein in an article about matching up Rabbinical sources and Polish records points to the difficulty in tracing Rabbi Wax's records. This is due to the use of the surname Gerymter (sometimes together with the surname Waks) that appears in Kalisz vital records as indexed in (JRI-Poland ), a name that does not appear in any Rabbinical sources. Analysis of other Polish vital records, including records from Jozefow Ordynacki that are the marriage records of 2 siblings of Chaim Elozor from Tarnogrod, use the Gerymter surname. It is clear that his family used the name Gerymter and not Waks. One of these records show that he had a brother-in-law named Zrul WAKS, and this might be the source (reason unknown) of the Waks name used by Rabbi Chaim Elozor, a surname that he used together with the name Gerymter in Kalisz vital records.〕 (1822, Tarnogrod - 1889, Kalisz〔(The State Archive of Kalisz ): "Jewish Civil Registry of Kalisz", Town: Kalisz, Year: 1889, Akt (record) #: 45, Record Type: death, Given Name: Chajm Lajzer, Surname: Gerimter / Waks.〕) was a well-known Hasidic rabbi, posek, and a Jewish leader in Poland. He was a philanthropist and accomplished student of the Talmud.
He is especially known from his responsa work ''Nefesh Haya'', and as the president of Kupat Rabbi Meir Baal HaNes Kollel Polen, Warsaw region.〔(Kollel Polen )〕
==Tarnogrod==
Wax was born in 1822 in the city of Tarnogrod, near the border of Austrian-ruled Polish Galicia. His father, Rabbi Avraham Yehuda Leibish, was also known for his scholarship. According to the introduction of his book "Nefesh Haya", his mother was a devout and supportive woman who, when Wax fell seriously ill as a child, prayed to God to take her life instead of her son's, or failing that (since it would leave the child motherless) to transfer the illness to her and let him recover. The young Wax quickly recovered, apparently answering his mother's prayer: she died, fulling her pledge, after Wax had become established in the community.
At age 18 Wax became the rabbi of Tarnogrod, a post he held for around 20 years.
