11. Dine, born Sep. 23 1880, female, legitimate
Father: Abu Rubin [or Abo Robin]
Mother: Kreindel Sonensein[!]
Parents' residence: Kurima
Midwife: M. Balack[?]
Naming: 25 Sept.
Sponsors/witnesses: M. Händler

The spelling of Sonnenschein as "Sonensein" is a weird mix of orthographies, with the first S and the final syllable's vowel using German rules, but the second s following Hungarian rules. (Fully Hungarian phonetic rendering would be Zonnensájn.)
