Bala Documents

[Marj]

I can't make out what the village is or the town. Also can't find any record of the ships agent?(This is regarding the hand written letter)

The other attachment has the house number in the village where Wasyl Bala was born. Does it still look like Chornushovychi is the correct village?

Thank-you very much,
Marj

Chernushovychi is the correct place - this name is hand-written on the birth record , and the stamp and the seal also bear the same name
I can't make out the name of the village in the English text (first document) is it STRILKIVTSI in the Borschiv district?
