Re:

I'm a bit confused by your questions, so let's start from the beginning.
My great-great-great-grandfather Rabbi Reuven Chaim Klein (rav of Davidkoff, author of Shenos Chaim) had 3 sons: Binyamin Eliezer Klein, Tzvi Dov (Hersch Ber) Klein, and Yeruchem Klein. As far as I know, he did not have a son named Moshe. I am a descendant of his oldest son, Binyamin Eliezer (who was my great-grandfather). Binyamin Eliezer also did not have a son named Moshe, his only son was named Mordechai (my great-grandfather). Mordechai also only had one son, who was named Reuven Chaim Klein (my grandfather). So there's nobody named Moshe so far. What makes your brother think that your family descends from the Shenos Chaim? Maybe you can CC your brother on this email so we can discuss?
There was Moshe Azriel Klein (1895-1971) who was a grandson of the Shenos Chaim (through his son Tzvi Dov/Hersch Ber), is that who you're thinking of? There might be more Moshe Kleins in the family tree, but I still need more info to know what I'm looking for.
Are you related to the Fischer family from Los Angeles? I think I remember there's a Rabbi Fischer (whose wife is a Grossman) who is a descendant of the Shenos Chaim.

thank you for replying. I am a fischer einikel from pressburg. my grandmother tzerl fischer was the daughter of moshe and frimet Klein from donafeldvar. we dont know who moshe Klein's father was. my brother knows his name was reuven chaim Klein rav of davidkoff. my grandfather had a brother reuven chaim who was named after that grandfather. he was only nifter a few years ago in yerushalayim. he lived till 105. maybe you would know if your great grandfather had a son moshe Klein. do you know who your grandfather's children were? I know that my great grandfather moshe Klein came from a very choshuve background. thank you for all your help.

I am named after my grandfather Reuven Chaim Klein who was named after his great-grandfather Rabbi Reuven Chaim Klein, rav of Davidkoff who wrote the work Shenos Chaim. What sort of information are you looking for? I've done lots of genealogical research. If you tell me more about your parents and grandparents, I might be able to help.
