Please note as previously mentioned that while I am the Co-Director of Romanian Research for JewishGen, this course is not affiliated with JewishGen.

I have posted a message written by my relative to,or about my great grandfather.  It is in transliterated Yiddish on the back of a formal document.  The document is legal sized, so the message is in two parts.   I am hoping that someone can tell me what it says. translation. 
They are on ViewMate at the following addresses ...

Two questions regarding naming conventions:

In the late 1800s, if paternal and maternal grandfathers were both
deceased when the first son was born, would he have been named after
the paternal grandfather, or was it a choice?

When did the practice start for using the first letter of a deceased
relative's name for a child, rather than the whole name? Example
being naming a child Carl, after his grandfather Charles?
