  Birth	9 Sep 1893	Mózgowo, Poland   [2, 3]
  	The death certificate says he was born in Russia, but the 1930 Census says Poland; therefore, it is likely he was born in Russian occupied Poland. His army enlistment lists his birthplace, but the handwriting is very poor and seems to say Mogzyrowo. The closest thing to this that I could find on Google Earth is Mzó gowo, Poland which is just south of Gdansk.
