==== Until 5690 (1930) ==== Already during the period of the Rebbe Maharash we find Chabad chassidim residing in the city, and synagogues following the Arizal and Alter Rebbe's nusach were abundant. Most chassidim traveled due to the financial difficulties that existed in Russia at that time. During the period of the Frierdiker Rebbe, they united under the name "Agudas Chassidei Chabad," whose center was in New York, which managed and coordinated Chabad affairs in the United States. Among the prominent chassidim from that period, we can mention: Rabbi Eliyahu Yachil Simpson, Rabbi Yisroel Jacobson, and many others.
