...living in this city, and the mother Lora [Sora], no longer living. I know that she was born in this city in the year 1803, and therefore she is now 23 years of age, I also know that she has the intention to be married with the Jew Dawid Altsztein, and also I know quite well that Ella Drozdowicz has not promised herself in marriage to anyone so far. The above statement, which is a thorough and accurate portrayal of the truth, may [act] as a proof of all this. [The witness] is prepared, upon demand, to swear this, and he also signs by hand below.

April 23, 1832 Birth Record of Hersz Altstein, Akta 13 Polish language
Translation thanks to Valerie Baginski:
This happened in the city of Nowy Dwór, on the 23rd of April 1832, at 8 a.m. Jew Dawid Altsztein appeared, day-laborer residing here in Nowy Dwór, age 40, in the presence of witnesses, Jews Moszka Borensztein, teacher, age 45, and Matys Junkier, fuller (hatter), age 32, here in Nowy Dwór residing, and showed us a child of male sex born here in Nowy Dwór on the 15th of April this year at midnight, to his wife Ela Altsztein, age 30, who, at circumcision, was given the name Hersz. This document was read aloud to the declarant and witnesses and signed by all.
February 20, 1834: Birth Nuchel Altsztejn Akta 4 Polish language
Translation:
Date of record: Nowy Dwór, 1 March 1834, 9 a.m.
Father: Dawid Altsztein, day-laborer, age 27, residing here in Nowy Dwór
Child: male named Nuchel Fux [or could maybe be Fuks; two given names] born here in Nowy Dwór on 22 February this year at 5 a.m.
Mother: Etla Altsztein, age 24
Note that the handwriting of the Nuchel Fux witness signature in No. 3 is identical to the writing in the right margin of No. 4. That was probably written by the clerk. Nuchel Fux signed in Yiddish.
And Alan K'necht sees the dates as February 22, 1834 Birth and 3 March 1834 Record date. To be further researched.
Here is a condensation of the Index Page. Same handwriting.
Conclusion: Fux appears in the family name column and is not a second given name. This is Nuchel Altsztein, incorrectly recorded.
