My ancestors were Galitzianer Chassidim, and I'm trying to figure out the minhag of Galitziana in regards to waiting between eating meat and milk. Does anyone know what the minhag is?

If they were Chasidim, most likely they would have waited six hours between fleishig and milchig.– ezraCommented Nov 22, 2017 at 6:07

I am of Galitzian roots and we wait 6 hours. Ashkenazic Jews in general didn't used to wait six hours, based on the Rama it was accepted to wait 6 hours. Ashreinu!

Galitzianeryid, welcome to Mi Yodeya, and thanks for sharing! Commented May 1, 2018 at 17:50
Six hours. That's the default, what you'd see in "Poland", which included Galicia back then.
Three hours is German and British; one is Dutch; Sephardic practices vary widely.
(I also happen to know people with strong Galitzianer roots, and they keep six!)

Sources would greatly improve this. I know w Galicians who wait "into the fifth hour" which is different.– mevaqeshCommented Nov 22, 2017 at 11:37

2"Sephardic practices vary widely. But Ashkenazim default to six." That's backwards. You even just listed 3 options for Ashkenazim! If anything the default Ashkenzi position is 1 hour, and various stringencies above that were accepted in different places. It's Sefardim who default to 6.– Double AA ♦Commented Nov 22, 2017 at 12:54

My family comes from there, and can confirm that we keep six– user15253Commented Nov 22, 2017 at 17:17
