Rabbi Avraham Gershon Goldberger (1870 – 1936) was the son of Rabbi Yozefa Goldberg, son-in-law of Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch of Liska. He grew up under the tutelage of his illustrious grandfather, serving him and sleeping with him in his room and merited an exceptionally close bond with him. Later, he became a disciple of the Yitav Lev and was close to the Admor of Shinowa as well. Rabbi Avraham Gershon held back-and-forth Torah discussions with the leading Halachic authorities of Hungary and served as the Av Beis Din of Berczel until his eventual passing in 1936. He was succeeded by his son-in-law, Rabbi Ezra HaCohen Fried, son of the Pnei Meivin (see lot 96). .
