Larry Tauber and I are 9th cousins. That is how he knows the name
of my great-great-grandmother. Jutta Rachel's maiden name was Landau.
Her father was Meir Landau a grandson of Ezikiel Landau (Ha-Noda b'Yehuda).
Her mother's name was Sarah Feiga Kahana and it was she who was a direct
descendant of Yom Tov Lipman Heller.
As far as I know the line of descent from Yom Tov Lipman Heller is this:
Yom Tov Lipman Heller (1578 - 1654) had a daughter Raizel or Reizel.
Reizel married Yaakov Kahana and her sons took the name Kahana.
One of her great-grandsons, a great-great-grandson of Yom Tov Lipman Heller
was Yehuda Heller Kahana (the author of "Kuntras Ha-Sfekot) (1738 1819)
Yehuda Kahana had a son by the name of Shimon Zvi Kahana, who had
a daughter Sara Faiga Kahana, who was my great-great-great grandmother.
I hope you are all suitably impressed.
Shabbat Shalom,
Mimi
