.
Akiva ben (Harav) Moshe GINS (b. 8 Nov. 1761 Eisenstadt, Austria, d. 12 Oct. or 23 Sept. 1837 Posen, Poland), aka "Gaon of Posen", aka "Akiva the Younger". Rabbi Akiva Eiger was born Akiva Ginz but went by Eiger out of reverence to his maternal grandfather. He was the rabbi in Märkisch Friedland, Westpreußen (Prussia) between 1791 and 1815. He then became the Chief Rabbi in Posen until 1837. Akiva married twice.
He first married Glückchen MARGOLIES (b. 1763 Lissa, Poland, d. 1796 Posen, Poland)
Their children used mostly their grandmother's surname and not their fathers. Akiva was named after his maternal Grandfather who was the Rabbi in Pressburg, Slovakia. The grandfather was a scholar of some note and respected by the Worldwide Jewish Community.
