It’s a known fun fact attributed to his mesirus nefesh in fighting the haskala.
(That’s also why there are so many of them bli ayin hara) |

He is a direct descendent of the Taz, ben achar ben.
My mother A"H was a descendent of the Shlah HaKadosh, and the Shlah apparently could trace his lineage to David Hamelech.
On my paternal grandfather's side, my great-great-great grandfather was a Chassidish Rebbe known as R' Hershele Lisker. He was the Rebbe of the more famous R' Shayala Kerestirer.
My maternal grandmother was descendent of a famous Rav in Czekoslovaki area known as the Mareh Yecheskal. He was the Rebbe of Dhez.
My grandmother A"H was very into all this stuff, so I heard alot of family stories from her as a child. I find history fascinating. |
On my father's side I am.a descendant of the taz as well.

Just the opposite... today it’s harder to keep track 6-7 generations later what every single one of them is up to but up until quite recently it was a well known phenomenon.
He fought tooth and nail against the haskala even much more than some RW frummies here on Imamother 
His famous saying was Chadash assur min Hatorah meaning that anything new is forbidden just because it’s a change.
Just saying what I know but Schreiber is definitely a Jewish name.
