## What is known

He is the top of the line that goes up through Dvorka's father: Mordechai, Yovel Yovel, Zalman, Mark and this Yovel, for whom the tree gives nothing but a year.

There are fifteen years between his date and his son's. A very young father, and yet possible: that is how the dates of this branch run.
