Where does this list of the children of Podobryanka Rov come from?

The three sons from Chabadapedia among other sources. The two daughter we found in other sources. Do not remember where exactly now.

I’ve been informed that “Devora Leah” and “Musia” are actually *mistakes* based on Reshimos HaRabash saying “אחותי”. Really it’s a typo & should say “אחותו”, the Rebbe Rashab’s sisters.

What Rashab has to do with this line? Do you think the author of Geni was reading the reshimios?

Probably yes. Whether they or their source read the Reshimos, it’s obviously where it comes from.

R Boruch Shneur writes “his sisters Musia and Devorah Leah” but it’s printed as “my sisters Musia and Devorah Leah”. People read that and assumed R LY of Podobranke had another two daughters no one knew about!
