Tosh
טאהש
Tosh began in the small Hungarian town of Nyírtass with Rebbe Meshulam Feish Segal Lowy, a fiery Chassid of Reb Dovid of Dinov. His son Reb Elimelech led the court until 1942, and most of the family perished in the Holocaust. A grandson, Reb Meshulam Feish Lowy, rebuilt the Chassidus after the war and moved it to Canada, where he founded Kiryas Tosh near Montreal; his son Reb Elimelech leads it today.
