Amshinov
אמשינוב
Amshinov was founded by Reb Yaakov Dovid Kalish, the eldest son of Rebbe Yitzchok of Vorka. Its Rebbes led in Amshinov and Warsaw until the Holocaust; the court was rebuilt in America and Eretz Yisroel, and today there are Amshinover Rebbes in Boro Park and Bet Shemesh, with the Otvotzk line in Yerushalayim.
