Rabbi David FRANKEL (FRENKEL) served as the Rabbi and Av Beit Din of Nepolokivtsi for about 50 years,
until he was brutally killed in the Holocaust in about Nov 1941.
He was born in Rzeszow (Reisha), Galicia, Poland (or in Zabłotów, Galicia, Poland) in 1862 (65?) to Yehoshua and Ester FRANKEL.  
In about 1886 he married Freida Gele nee GARDIN from Izbitza (Izbica Lubelski), Poland.
He lived in Izbitza until the family was deported by the Russian, when he became the Rabbi of Nepolokoutz.
He lived in Nepolokoutz in the train station neighborhood next to the synagogue.
He was murdered with his first born son, Rabbi Yehoshua, in Nov 1941, during their deportation to Transniestria, on the way from Yedinetz, Bessarabia, Romania (today Edinet, Moldova) to Transniestria.
Rabbi David Frankel was deported in July 1941, with other Jews who survived the murder of the Jews of Nepolokoutz,  first to Luzhan, then after a few weeks to Yedinetz.
 Rabbi  Frankel, who was not only old but also sick and starved after about 5 months of deportation, was carried on a wagon, while his son Yehoshua walking, with many others, besides the wagon. It was  probably November 1941, wintry and snowing, while the wagon turned over, either accidentally or by the Romanian Cadets (Gendarmes) who guarded them; the Romanians then shot  David, his wife Freida, his son Yehoshua and Yehoshua' s wife Breine.
The above is according to testimonies by Pepi MUNSTER-LOEFFLER and Dontzia MUNSTER-OVICH. Pepi also remembered hearing the romanian Gendarme telling his friends proudly how he just shot some Jews, and later she saw Rabbi David Frankel's corpse lying in the snow.
