Dennis, I didn't see them in the Family Tree so I tagged them and added a couple sources. Krikor's ID is 2WXB-ZJP. Entries two and three on the page are for Hagob M. born 8 March 1854 and Garabet M. born 10 March 1858. There are no relationships on the page, but it looks like they might be brothers to Sargis. More research is needed to be sure on that bit.

Dennis J Yancey

thanks

in the comments field - can you do some basic transcribing of what you were able to read?

 

C E Andrus

Dennis, that's why I connected the entries to the tree profiles. It's just their names and their dates of birth. If you hover over the image you will see a tag showing the name of each person (except Hagob and Garabet as I mentioned earlier).

Dennis J Yancey

ok -- thanks

C E Andrus

Where did you find this record?

Dennis J Yancey

can you tell me what the Aremian printed writing at the very top means?

 

Dennis J Yancey

I added some of your comments to the comments section underneath the image

feel free to add any additional comments you think will be helpful

Dennis J Yancey

so what about the entries besides 2 and 3? They may not be in FS Family tree - but can you read the writing?

Thanks

C E Andrus

Yes, I created profiles and tagged 5 of the 7 entries on the page. The top of the page means family registry and below it it says births. It would seem there should be separate pages for deaths and marriages.

I added more info to comments based on my source.

Thanks for your help.

 

Are you of Armenian Descent?

 

C E Andrus

You're welcome. I'm not of Armenian descent.

Great! I tagged a couple of the people and added them to the tree. A couple of the others I didn't add since they are pretty recent.

I learned Armenian when I lived there as a missionary.
