Chil Gutman (1817-1885), son of Wolf, brother of Moszek and first cousin of David

Chil, said, like David, to be a teacher, married a woman named Sarah (maiden name unknown) who was the same age and who came from some other town. There are Kock birth records of two sons, Isaac (1850) and Mordko (1858). Isaac married twice in Kock in 1870 and, after the death of his first wife, in 1899. Sarah died in Kock in 1890. Those are all the known records of Chil, his wife, and their children

Birth Record For Charna Gutman

Filed 10 years after the fact. Evidently she was born in Kock, not Michow. Czarna seems like a nickname to me; since she was 10 years old that might have been what everyone called her, but her real name was more likely Hannah (Chana) since that is the Yiddish name that Jenny is usually adopted from. The similarity of Chana and Czarna is just a coincidence. 1. [It] occurred in town Kotsk eleventh (twenty third) [of] July
