A genealogy. Manuscript on a large parchment scroll. Haifa, 1957.
An illustration with the details of six generations of the descendents of the Dokor family of Lida, who trace their lineage to Rabbi David HaLevi, author of the Taz and to Rabbi Moshe Rivkes, author of Be'er Hagola. Edited by Shlomo ben Yeshaya Dokor who writes: "I have taken to heart…that all the scrolls of the genealogy in the possession of the descendents of the Taz and the Be'er Hagola…were destroyed with their owners by Hitler and his party…so the scroll which remained in my possession was blurred and worn from age and soon would disintegrate…and I am already nearing the age of 90 and know six generations…".
The first part of the family tree was written according to the genealogy written in 1812 by Rabbi Aryeh Leib ben R' Gavriel Av Beit Din of Volpa, with details of the family background from the Taz and the Be'er Hagola up to his time. The phrasing of this scroll was copied at the bottom of the tree.
Alongside the "trunk", is a colored illustration of the "plot with the tombstone of the grave of the Taz in Lvov".
