In this Revizskaya Skazka listed in total two hundred forty seven males and two hundred three females.

The fact

- that it was so many Jewish peasants by Year One Thousand Eight Hundred Fifty Eight, Twenty Fifth Day of May,

- and that this document is correct, and was announced 3 times in all-male assembly,

is confirmed by the signature of the person who composed it, namely, Girshko Pomianov, son of Yitsik of colony Mezhirich,

and by signatures of the following persons:

• Shults
• Leizer Kulsuk, son of Meyer (family 15);
• Movsha Kalmanovich, son of Kalman from Beizitser family;
• Gilel Sad, son of Itsek (family 1);
• Sheimel Levenson, son of Velvel (family 19);
• Rabbi Aizik Vunder, son of Yesel.

Notes from translator.

Original manuscript is hand-written on pre-printed pages. Each page has header “Census Year 1858, 25 Day of May Guberniya of Ekaterinoslav, Alexandrovsky uyezd, Jewish colony Grafskaya”. Parts that are shown in bold are pre-printed, everything else is hand-written. It is curious that the clerk first wrote wrong day, and later corrected it on every page. The left page of every pair of pages is for males, the right page – for females. Columns are a bit different on male and female sides. I had to position entries for males and females of each family one under another. At the bottoms of pages is pre-printed text “Total of males present” and “Total of females present” with hand-written number. Often this total-for-page appears in the middle of a family.

The clerk sometimes mentions “uyezd of Rassien” (or other place), other times “community of Rassien”, meaning, probably, “Jewish community”. Lithuanian name of this town is Raseiniai.

When he mentions “M. Gavriera”, I make wild guess that “M.” is for “miestiechko” - small Jewish town, like “miasteczko”in Polish.

He did not bother to capitalize proper names.

I translated all patronymic names as “son of…” and “daughter of…”, or as Abram’s son and Abram’s daughter.

In the original document a female’s part for families 11-13, 15-17, and 20-22 shows the most left column (the NOW PRESENT / AGE column from the male’s part, that, normally, is on the both male and female) as for family 7&8. But the list of females looks correctly.
