Death of Beryl Gutman in 1846

This document ties Baruch Gutman to both David (as survivor) and Wolf (same parents). In the 1872 document of David's death, Baruch is mentioned as his father, and survivors are named as Szejwa, Ruchla, and Yankiel.

"On 21 April 1846 at 9 am appeared before me Judka Rechtman, "szkolnik" aged 43 and Zelman Wartownik, "szkolnik" aged 42 residing in Kock and stated that on 20 April at 1pm died Beryl Gutman, labourer aged 53, residing in Kock, son of Icek and Mala (?), leaving behind son David. The certificate, after reading, was signed by Judka Rechtman only, because Zelman Wartownik can't write."
