I don't believe I've ever heard of that Rabbi, sorry. My Charif family comes from my gggg-grandfather Rabbi Ya'akov HaLevi the brother of Rabbi Yosef Charif.

The two surnames are probably taken from two different ancestors, and as I understand, you don't know much about this Auerbach family.

Although the book mentions a Rabbi Yakov Charif ABD Leshnov and a Rabbi Chaim Yakov Halevi Charif ABD Polnoe, there is no mention of a "R' Yakov Yitzas Halevi the son of Tzvi Halevi".

I think it would be worthwhile for you to get a copy of this book which concentrates on the lineage of the family with its more than 700 ancestors directly linked to Dovid Hamelech. This hard-cover books contains 200 pages of our family genealogy and is replete with charts, yahrtzeits and a concise easy to follow index.

I think I was a little unclear on my original message, so let me try to fix it up better. First of all, Rabbi Binyamin Eliezer Ungar-Auerbach was not my grandfather, he was rather my gggg-grandfather. I was trying to say that his father-in-law, Rabbi Yaakov HaLevi was a ABD in Krakow, not that he was.The GED file on my site is very outdated and hasn't been fixed for over a year. Reb Yaakov HaLevi was a direct male descendant of the TaZ (they were both Leviim), although I can't trace that exact lineage, which is what I am trying to do. Perhaps your book can help me. Can you please check if it mentioned this ABD of Krakow, Reb Ya'akov Litzas HaLevi, who was the brother of Rav Yosef Charif-Lichtig and the son of Reb Tzvi HaLevi (and again all these Leviim are direct male descendents of the TaZ) and their exact lineage to the TaZ? Would you be willing to send me the information tracing the TaZ and BACH all the way to Dovid HaMelech, it would be very interesting for me.
 
Sorry for the misunderstandings and thank you for all your help.

Although your grandfather used both names Unger & Auerbach, I assume he was probably not the son of an Auerbach but of an Unger and/or Unger-Auerbach. I don't recall an Av Beis Din in Krakow by the name of Auerbach during my research. The Auerbach ancestor I am a descendant from is the famous Rabbi Nachman Zev Auerbach ABD Monasterzyska (1789-1855), son of Rabbi David Tzvi ABD Kremenetz and Mogilev (1743-1808), son of Rabbi Arye Leibish Auerbach ABD Stanislav (1710-1749).

I wanted to study your family tree and your connection to the Taz, so I downloaded your gedcom file. Apparently, there is no name on your tree actually connected to the Taz. Is your ancestor, Tzvi Hirsch Litzas Halevi, a descendant?

BTW, the surname of the Taz's mother-in-law, Baila, is not "Fum". Her father, Rabbi Avraham Hertzkes "was a Fum (or rather Pum) (peh-vov-mem) in Lwow", which stands for "Parness uManhig". He was the son of Rabbi Naftali Hertz (Rosh Mesivta in Lwow), hence his surname, Hertzkes.

After 18 years of research, we recently published a family genealogy book detailing in graphic description the lineage of the family with its more than 700 ancestors directly linked to King David. As a descendant of the Taz, the Bach and the Auerbachs, their genealogy tree is part of this book.
