Sarah Abeles, Ginz Schlesinger

Simcha's second wife was the widow Sarah Abeles nee Chajes.

Sarah's first husband was Gaon Rabbi Binyamin Wolf Abeles who died in 1820 in Tab, Hungary.

So the earliest that the marriage betweem Simcha and Sarah could have taken place was 1820 or 1821.

There is a an inconsistency regarding the date of death between Rabbi Bunim Ginz's 2 wives. This being the 2nd wife is only 1 day after the first wife. It seems that this is the incorrect one, since Rabbi Bunim Ginz died in 1829 and she is presumed to have outlived her 2nd husband.

Her tombstone was found at the website of the Jewish Museum of Austria https://www.ojm.at/blog/2014/12/16/guens-eger-schlesinger-sara-13-0... She died 1 Iyar 5,610 = April 13, 1850
