Other Notes:

[N2] The term 'kosher' implies that she kept an orthodox-Jewish household.
[N5&8] Possibly Mindel. Surname beyond recognition.
[N7] When a month has two days of Rosh Chodesh [New Month, celebrating the 'new moon'], as here – the first day is celebrated on the last day of the previous month, the second being the first day of the new month. Thus 1st Iyyar, Hebrew year is undecipherable.
