Could anyone help me with this, I wonder. On a list of persons who requested to live in Prague, 1850-1914, there is a listing for a Josef Breburda born 1820. There are two listings for him, one lists his birth place as "Neudorf." There are many towns by that, name so difficult to know which one here. However, on another listing for him in the place for birth place there is a word which I cannot decipher due to the old handwriting. It's either "Gisafoly," "Gisafaly," or it could even be "Gifisoh" or even something else, since I can't be certain if the letters are an "f" or an "s," or exactly what the final letter is. Would someone have any idea of what this word could mean...is this actually the name of a town or does it mean something else entirely? ShtetlSeeker comes up with nothing.. Thanks for any help.
