Indeed I am referring to this Rabbi. In the book I have it says in Hungarian: "Edesanja Katz Nina, a hires morvaorszagi talmudkutato es nikolsburgi forabbi, Bendikt Marcus (1753-1828)". I know it is hard to read this without the accent marks on the letters but this sentence indeed mentions the fact that Benedikt Marcus was an important Rabbi in Moravia and Nikolsburg. If I understand the sentence correctly (my Hungarian is very poor, I only heard it spoken at home and all I know is what I picked >from my late parents) Katz Nina was a descendant of Rabbi Benedikt Marcus. Is this the proper way to read the above sentence? We have reasons to believe that Katz Nina is related to my Katz family and if this is true I am on the verge of a huge breakthrough in my research. Thank you very much, Isaac Katz Beit-Hanania Israel
