Please independently transcribe the child’s name written in the margin and translate the full
handwritten Russian-language record. I am particularly interested in the exact birth date, both parents’ full names
and mother’s maiden surname, parents’ ages, occupations and residence, witnesses, and any additional
identifying details. Previous tentative readings of the name have not been verified. I am investigating Landgarten
family connections.
