Hi,
Actually, there is more to this answer, and it spans both the Galician and Hungarian SIG's. The Langsam-Spira-Miller family heavily married back into itself or those married into it. It was not usually on the first-cousin level, although it did occur (there are no two-headed Millers). The family lived on both sides of the "fence", in Galicia and northern Slovakia/Ukraine. After some period of time there was an extensive part of the family in Hungary as well. For those interested in more history, please consult my website (see below). Anyhow, a younger sister to Sara Schonfeld (nee Spira) was Rivka, married R' Yakov Uri. This Rivka died prematurely and R' Yakov Uri remarried, to his niece, (Yitta) Leah, daughter of Sara Schonfeld. (Yitta) Leah was a sister to Rabbi Zvi Elimelech Schonfeld. (Yitta) Leah and R' Yakov Uri had several children together, one of whom was Frieda. This Frieda married Shmuel Zanvil Kallish, born circa 1840. One of his offspring provides more detail at http://www.ics.uci.edu/~dan/genealogy/Miller/spira/kalich.htm For a general overview of the Bnei Yissochur, R' Zvi Elimelech (Hersh Mylech) Spira and much of his offspring, you can view http://www.ics.uci.edu/~dan/genealogy/Miller/spira/bny-yscr.htm -Moishe Miller www.langsam.com moishe@...
