Talk:Chaim Yosef Gottlieb of Stropkov

Death Month Issue
The death date listed is 4 Adar 1867. The Seyfer Zichron Stropkov lists the yahrziet as "Holy Sabbath,the fourth day in the month of Av, 1867". In the year 1867 (5627), there were 2 months of Adar. Only 4 Adar one computes to a Shabbos. If anyone knows a source for the proper day, please add it.


 * 4 Adar I 5627 => Saturday 9 February 1867
 * 4 Adar II 5627 => Monday 11 March 1867
 * 4 Av 5627 => Monday 5 August 1867 —Preceding unsigned comment added by KosherJava (talk • contribs) 17:30, 9 September 2009 (UTC)


 * The exact death date was clarified by his death cert as referenced in the article. I would trust this more than the date in the Yizkor BookKosherJava (talk) 19:56, 9 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Going to the original Yizkor book (not the online English translation), shows that the date is listed as 4 Adar, and the date of 4 Av was a mistake by the English translator. The Yizkor book mistakenly lists the date as Shabbos. I will try to add additional information from the Yizkor book.KosherJava (talk) 20:12, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
