R. Yitzchak Isaac Weiss was the only son of the founder of the Spinka Chassidim, the Rebbe R. Yosef Meir. During World War I R. Yitzchak Isaac moved to Munkatch and from there to Selish, which became the new center of the Spinka in Hungary. He and most all of his family were later murdered by the Nazis during the Holocaust. His work 'Chakal Yitzchak' survived in manuscript and was published posthumously.
