This has to be some of the worst handwriting I've seen in a long time! I can only give you my best guess. The instructions are "The name & complete address of nearest relative or friend in country whence alien came" and "Final Destination"
father: Serbel Sawelwolf
Wolelisk Khroltz Terenlak, Russ Ill. Chicago
Usually you can look at the other writing on the page to match up certain letters, especially capital letters, but the relative's name doesn't have any matches I can decipher.
hope this helps,

Thank you. I agree re the handwriting. I think they came from Vitebsk (possibly that first place mentioned, in Russia. He was on his way to Chicago Ill. I do not understand that surname Sawelwolf, which I have also seen on the naturalization record, where it looked like Saulwolf. I cannot find that an any Jewish lists or genealogy resources. His father we thought was Hershel, but now I am not so sure!!!

@Carol Williams_20 Most of the time, it is best to use "ask a question" - do this by selecting the arrow to the right of "new discussion". Asking a question allows you to accept the answer or let us know you would like more help.
We are so glad you are part of this great community!
Enjoy today ! Cindy Jarvis
