**Comments on the Record**

1) Late Registration / Administrative Addition:
This entry was not originally written down at the time of birth in 1897. Instead, it was added decades later (in November 1927) following an official administrative instruction from the Voivodeship Office in Lwów and the District Office (*Starostwo*) in Sanok (signed by Starosta Michałowski).

2) Discrepancy in Names / Variants:
The marginal notes introduce alternate or additional identifying names for the individual concerned—referring to her variously as **Rysia Gewürz** and **Chaja Gidla Zinsiaw**—reflecting a later legal rectification or an alignment of civil records.

3) Birth Details Established:
The record establishes an illegitimate birth in **Zabłotce** in **1897**.

Based on the provided images of the vital records ledger columns (), the left-hand page entry (), and the right-hand page entry (), here is the transcription and translation for **Act No. 5**.
