Please read the Hebrew and Yiddish handwriting on this page, the right-hand page of a 1928 duplicate of an 1903 birth record from Zemaiciu Naumiestis (Naishtot-Tavrig).

I would like the personal names: child, father, mother. A Lithuanian parallel page gives them in Latin letters and I am deliberately not sending it, because I would rather have what the Hebrew says than a confirmation of what I expect. I will send it once you have read.

One oddity. A single word appears five times and I do not think it is Hebrew at all. It is connected cursive, roughly six letters, with a run of six evenly spaced arches, and it ends in a large looped stroke that does not join the letters before it. The same word fills both the birthplace and the residence field. I cannot tell whether it is Latin or Cyrillic, a town name or shorthand for "the same place." Your judgment would help.

The Hebrew dates were read on ViewMate in 2026 as 28 Elul and 6 Tishri; please skip those.
