"incorrect placement of actual historical figure, Rabbi Yehuda Leib (Liwa) HaZakein (http://failedmessiah.typepad.com/failed_messiahcom/2006/02/the_rebbe_king_.html, Link ej fundet Dec 2021).
The Maharal's lineage was traced through his purported "great-great-grandfather," Rabbi Yehuda Leib (Liwa) HaZakein.* Problem number one: The Maharal did not claim this descent and did not name this Yehuda Leib as an ancestor. Problem number two: Unlike what is written in Meir Pereles' 1727 "genealogy" of the Maharal, Yehuda Lieb HaZakein did not die in 1440. His tombstone shows his date of death 100 years later, in 1540. Why is this a problem? Because the Maharal was born about 1522, and Ashkenazim did not name children after living relatives, especially after a living patriarch of a very advanced age. So Yehuda Leib HaZakein is not the Maharal's ancestor, and lineage through him to the male line of King David through Shlomo HaMelekh is not possible.**
* This is the Yehuda Leib who was originally attributed with making a golem. The legend later was transposed, and Yehuda Leib HaZakein replaced with the Maharal.
** Details of this mistake by Pereles and its long-term repercussions can be found in Neil Rosenstein's article reviewing Shlomo Englard's critical research in Avotaynu XII, #1 1996." (Loren)

" Rabbi Bezalel (Hazaken) ben Yehuda LOEB was reportedly a descendant of King David (91 generations earlier). (See Aryeh Lifschuetz, Avoth Atarah le-Banim, Warsaw (1927) p. 163 and The ESKELES Genealogy by Zeev ESHKOLOT. for claims of descent from R. Hai.)
Bezalel Hazaken had a son Yehuda LOEW (Liwa) ben Bezalel (Hazaken or Hamephursam). Yehuda LOEW died 1440 in Worms (or 18 Heshvan in 1439 CE in Prague?) (A.k.a Liva The Elder of Prague.) [Alternatively according to some manuscripts, Yehuda Lev Hazaken is the son of Isaac son of Bezalel Hazaken.] Yehuda was the head of a Yeshiva in Worms. The name Liwa, which frequently appeared in the Worms area, is generally pronounced "Liwa" although originally it either stood for the German "Loewe" (lion), the heraldic sign of the tribe of Yehudah, or for the German-Jewish "Loew". Yehuda had a son Bezalel ben Yehuda LOEW.
(Loeb)".
(LOEB, http://www.loebtree.com/yoseph.html ) angiver følgende afstamning:
Our ancestor R. Yoseph I descends from King David in one of two possible ways. According to The ESKELES Genealogy by Zeev ESHKOLOT he was the son of Rav Khai (Hai) Gaon (b. 939, d. 1038 CE). See p. 320 and 1130 of vol. 7 of Encyclopedia Judaica 22 Volume Set. (See Aryeh LIFSCHEUTZ, Avoth Atarah le-Banim, Warsaw (1927) p. 163 for claim of descent from R. Hai.)
However, in Hai's eulogy, Samuel Ha-Nagid said that Hai left no child. (!?) Perhaps this simply meant that Samuel's son R. Yoseph I had already passed away.
Alternatively, According to David HUGHES, RDavidH218 at Aol.com, Yoseph was rather the son of Samuel Ha-Nagid, and Hai married a daughter of Samuel Ha-Nagid. (Gaon of the Sura academy 997-1013).
Either way the descent of R. Yoseph I proceeds through the Maharal and the Chavas Yoir to my step-grandfather Carl OPPENHEIMER. This information matches up with the Yikhus Letter in the possession of the Sans Hassidim (Zans Khassidim) which goes through R. Bezaelel Ben Yaacov. See The ESKELES Genealogy by Zeev ESHKOLOT.
Each entry is supposed to be the son of daughter of the previous entry.
R. Yoseph I. Gaon. Executed 1066. Married daughter of Rabbi Nissim Ben Yaakov. According to Moshe Shaltiel MosheShaltiel at cs.com, Yoseph was assassinated in a pogrom in Granada (1062) where he served as a Grand Vizier like his father before him. Yoseph Ha-Nagid married the daughter of Rabbi Nissim Ben Yaakov.
