>>>Siegel: a member of the tribe of Levi but not descended from Aaron,
chosen to assist the Temple priests.
http://segal.org/name/ ==> The correlation between "Segal" and Levite
has been blurred a bit over the centuries. In English-speaking
countries, Segal has been blurred with "Siegel" in the past century.
In English, Segal is pronounced as "Seegl", sounding the same as the
*unrelated* name Siegel, used by non-Levites.
