(Page 20 in military/service record booklet of Гершко Герцешовичъ Зозовскій - booklet in personal collection)
GOAL: a full translation of the handwritten & purple-stamped text on page 20 (or as much of the it as is legible). And if anyone recognizes the stamp or knows why the next page appears to have been torn out (p23 is blank), any insight would be wonderful.
- Gershko[?] was a private (Рябовой) in Alexander III’s infantry, initially called in Nov 1887. He/his family was from Lyubar, in modern Ukraine.
- I think this part of his booklet includes details about specific events/etc that occurred during his term of service; which is why I’d ultimately like as complete of a translation as possible.
- I know he ultimately fled the empire with his family before he was to be re-conscripted in 1902; and he was living in NYC by the year 1900 — so I’m trying to learn as much as possible about his whereabouts in the decade prior to arriving in the US.
Thank you very much for any help!!
