….almost everyone with the name Shor (or one of the many variants thereof) has a family tradition claiming descent from one or more of the legendary rabbi's of this outstanding Literary/Rabbinic dynasty.

And that's only part of it ...

R'Alexander Sender (Tevuot) Shor was a direct descendent of 'The Eagle' of the Shor Rabbinic Dynasty R'Naftali Zvi-Hersh Shor, who fathered many children and had many illustrious descendents - including both Tevuot Shors. R'Naftali himself was the product of illustrious forebears. His father R'Moshe Efraim Zalman Shor was said to have been a descendant of the noted 12th century tosafist Rabbenu Yosef Behor-Shor (for more about Rabbenu Yosef see Profiles) and his mother to have been a descendant of the renouned 11th century Commentator RASHI (for more about RASHI see Profiles) .
