I found information today and regarding it, the continuity of generations that currently appears in Geni is incorrect...according to the book:

https://beta.hebrewbooks.org/reader/reader.aspx?sfid=40848#p=448&fi...

The book states that Rabbi Shmuel was the son of Rabbi Bezalel, the son of Rabbi Chaim of Worms, the son of Rabbi Bezalel of Worms, the son of Rabbi Yehuda Liwa of Prague... (This is not about the Maharal of Prague, but about another person who lived several generations before the Maharal of Prague)

I wonder if anyone has any authoritative information on the subject, or maybe the author of the book was wrong?
