7/1/2026 5:58 PM Hello,
Here is all the information. You will note that the parents were married in 1914 in Vienna; I suspect they may have been living there because of the First World War. Some of my ancestors, who were also from the Kingdom of Galicia, relocated to Vienna in 1914 for this reason. Let me know if you don’t have this record and would like a copy of it; it may say more about Chana.

Also, you can look up “manu propria” for a good explanation if you’re not familiar with the term.
