I am having difficulty reading Jennie's husband's name on Yetta Meyerson's birth certificate. Can you help me???Dear Jewish Gem - I've taken the liberty of cropping and enlarging the name on the graphic you sent me. I have compared the letter formations of the name with other words on the same certificate.
My reading of this name is "Abraham" I am sorry I can't show you how I arrived at that, but I think you can clearly see the ending "aham" on the name.
What looks at first glance like 2 letters in front of "aham" is in reality 3 letters, rather scrunched together - those letters being "Abr"
Like the old optical illusion 'do you see a young woman or an old woman', once you point it out, it's obvious!
