Rebbe Nachum Dovber Friedman of Sadigura (d. 1883) was the grandson of R. Yisrael of Ruzhin, son of R. Shalom Yosef and son-in-law of R. Avraham Yaakov of Sadigura. R. Nachum Dovber possessed a large library and used four different stamps for his books. Books inherited from his father were stamped "Nachalat Avotai" (family inheritance); those he purchased were stamped "Kinyan Kaspi" (my acquisition) and those received as gifts were stamped "Minchat Shai" (gift). His library also included a small collection of books which his father-in-law received from converts who requested a tikkun for their souls. These are stamped "Minchat Ger" (gift from a convert).
