I found this 1889 revision list record in Jewish Gen and I'm confused dates and ages. (Bottom entry #459.) Translation of names from the index below. The original entry was from 1889, but other dates were added later, perhaps in 1900 or 1912. Could someone translate the text other than the names and give me some sense of the actual ages of the people.
