I was born in Sopron and learned by Rav Simcha Bunim ztz’l who learned by Rav Paler ztz’l, so I had a taste of the litvishe Chakiros. I don’t know Gruber’s relationshps. I don’t know which Spitzer you are referring to. Which Kraus?, In my time the Rav of Sopron was from Monsey, Rav Aharon Meir Krausz originally immigrated to Sydney, Australia. He is a son in law of Rav Tzitron from Hajdu Dorog. The Soproner Rav, Rav Shimon Posen ztz’l already was in America. Rav Paler ztzl, the brother in law of Rav Ehrenfeld ztz’l, left the yeshiva and formed his own yeshiva, Mekor Chaim.
