The birth record for my g-gf Leib DUBROVSKI was issued in Mogilev in 1877, although I believe he was born around 1874. His parents were listed as Yankel ben Itsko and Ester Rivka bat Leib.
Other researchers of the DUBROVSKI surname report ancestors living in the town of Shchadryn, about 90 miles away. We haven't been able to connect our family trees even though the given names are the same between our families.
Does a birth record registered in the town of Mogilev signify that the birth was in this town, or could the child have been born elsewhere?
