Hi Pamela,
My mother had two twin sisters who died at a very young age in Czernowitz.
She herself gave birth to a twin couple in Chile: my brother Sammy and
myself. (She resisted the idea because she had been told that twins skip
generations )
Warm regards,
Sally Bendersky

[Please post in Plain Text next time --thanks!]

Was the family name always Schiffman? A ring of familiarity to me as a
descendant of the Schiffnagel family of Czernowitz. My grandmother (who
married a Schiffnagel 1st cousin) was a twin, a recurring theme where we
can trace at least six sets of twins, female and male in the family line.
Does anyone know if twins were a rarity or common?
