A quick review of data I have collected about this node:
1) I see support for the positions of Haim Katz - Hachoen Wartski and Naftali Wakstein (without having seen the article due to lack of access): Rabbi Zecharya Mendel Kalusziner/Klausner, of Krakow did marry Sirke Kloisner daughter of Mordechai Yisrael Mordechai Lifshitz/Lipshitz; whose spouse was Esther Lifshitz daughter of Rabbi Moses Aharon Teomim-Fraenkel;
Here is the relevant portion of a comment I copied from not sure where that corroborates this position:
"Dear friends,
I recently discovered that my grandmother's brother, who is a
Chassid of the rabbi of Bobov (like his father and grandfather),
had written a (Hebrew, private published) book about the family
history, the Bobov rabbis and, of course, the family ancestors,
who were rabbis. I'll list them starting with my g-grandfather.
I don't know were did the author got this information (whether at
home >from his father or, at least partly, >from other sources).
In some cases I didn't recognize the name of the towns mentioned.
I wrote the name of all towns in between.
Since I've just got this book I didn't have time, yet, to check
other sources about Polish rabbis (like Wunder's books etc.) In
case anyone has information/ corrections to my info/names or names
of not so familiar books or if any of you is related to these
rabbis - please contact me or let the sig members know about the
general interest information.
Here are the names:

2) Meir Wunder, in Elef Margoliot may have different information, but I cannot be sure of Wunder's ultimate position since I do not have the most recently edited version of Elef Margoliot (for example, #780 on the Bushka-Fishels Tree, which may be outdated now, shows HaNavi with a spouse who is the daughter of Rabbi Yaakov Hirsch Levenshtam, ABD Brisk & Lublin their son being R' Zvi Hirsch Klausner, A.B.D. Lvov (city); I have attached this tree to the Rabbi Yaakov Hirsch Levenshtam, ABD Brisk & Lublin profile).
3) Otser HaRabanin # 5600 says HaNavi was s-i-l of Betsalel of Worms: # 4007 (shown on GENI as Yuta's grandfather), however, it is possible that Otser is confusing HaNavi with his grandfather, ZM Klausner, The Elder of Posen, who GENI shows as also marrying a daughter of Betsalel of Worms (Rabbi Zecharia Mendel, the Elder, of Posen) [Maharal brother-in-law]).
In my mind the questions are whether ZM Klausner HaNavi may have had more than one spouse, and if so who the spouse(s) may have been. I would like to know how Wakstein decides the matter of the other spouse(s).
TIA
