In most rabbinical literature it is written that he was married only once to:
Malka Ginsberg

In individual books it is written that he was married twice and his second wife was:

Miriam wife, Avraham Chaim of Opatow

I see that you attached information from the Jacobi Papers to his profile, but for some unknown reason, when I try to view the page, I get a blank page

Can you please look at what Jacobi wrote?

Thanks

Haim Katz - Hachoen Wartski Thanks for the inquiry. I can only say that in Vol. 2, p. 426, 14.1, Jacobi posits that Miriam, who was Rav Avraham Chaim's spouse's niece, married her aunt's husband after the latter died. Jacobi also adds that the provenance of this information is not fully confirmed. That is, Jacobi saw some evidence of this but is not 100% confident of its reliability. I do not have this volume in my possessions and did not make a copy of the relevant portions when I reviewed these pages. I did not record Jacobi's source for the information. Someone in possession of the volume would have to check that.

Thanks a lot, Adam

In almost all rabbinical sources it is written that he was married only once, I have no verified information on the subject,

I hope there is someone here who has qualified information
