I believe this is my great-grandmother's birth certificate and that she was born on 24 September 1872. I would like that confirmed. I would also like any information about her parents, whose names should be Josef Icek Kupferberg and Gryna Szyflinger. How old were they? What were their occupations? Where did they live (a house number)?

Thank you!

Акт № 82 от 02 октября 1872 о рождении :
Сура Ита родилась в посаде Опале 24 сентября 1872 года в 4 часа ночи.

Отец: Иосек Ицек Купферберг, 20 лет, «торговщик» (занимался торговлей).
Мать: Грина, урождённая Шифлингер, 18 лет.

А дальше ,то что смогла увидеть на нашем сайте:
1. В 1874 году у этих родителей родился брат Суры Иты : Берек .27 июля 1874 года.
2. Иосек и Грина поженились в 1870 году, правда в этом акте и жениху и невесте по 18 лет. Вот что написано в этом акте:

Акт №7 от 25 июля 1870 года.
Жених: Иоск Курферберг, холостой, 18 лет, живущий при родителях торговцах (занимались торговлей) в посаде Сенна, сына Бенямина и Мали, урождённой Голдушин (Голуман?).
Невеста: Грина Шифлингер, девица, 18 лет, живущая при матери торговщице (занималась торговлей) в посаде Опале, дочерью умершего Берни и живущей сейчас Гитли, урождённой Зыльберцвинг.
===============================
Birth Record No. 82, dated October 2, 1872:

Sura Ita was born in the *posad* (small town) of Opale on September 24, 1872, at 4:00 AM.
Father: Iosek Itsek Kupferberg, 20 years old, "merchant" (engaged in trade).
Mother: Grina, née Shiflinger, 18 years old.

And here is what I was able to find on our website:

1. In 1874, a brother to Sura Ita—Berek—was born to these parents on July 27, 1874.

2. Iosek and Grina married in 1870; notably, in that record, both the groom and the bride are listed as 18 years old.
Here is what the record states:

Marriage Record No. 7, dated July 25, 1870.

Groom: Iosk Kupferberg, bachelor, 18 years old, residing with his merchant parents in the *posad* of Senna; son of Benyamin and Mala, née Goldushin (Goluman?).

Bride: Grina Shiflinger, maiden, 18 years old, residing with her merchant mother in the *posad* of Opale; daughter of the late Berni and the living Gitla, née Zylberzving.
