## Narrative
Moszek Lejb Winer was born in [[Bełżyce]] on 29 March 1836 and named, at his circumcision, Moszek Lejb.[^birth] His birth act — drawn up at Bełżyce on 5 April 1836 — is a small family portrait: the child was presented by his father, "**Manas Winer, painter, aged twenty-seven**," and his mother is entered as Ruchla, aged thirty-three; the witnesses were a Bełżyce tailor and another townsman, and his father signed the act.[^birth] He was thus the son of the painter [[Manas Winer (b.1807)]] and [[Ruchla Tenenbaum (b.1798)]], a grandson of the shopkeeper [[Chaim Winer (b.1775)]], and — like the three generations before him — a Bełżyce man.[^parents]
He married three times, and fathered a large family across those marriages. His wives were [[Cwetla Kaufman (b.1852)]], [[Estera Machla Goldzweig (b.1836)]] and [[Sura Laja Nissenbaum (b.1853)]]; his children include [[Manas Winer (b.1855)]], [[Abram Winer (b.1859)]], [[Mendel Winer (b.1860) (2)]], [[Chaim Winer (b.1865)]], [[Zlota Winer (b.1866)]], [[Szmul Lipa Winer (b.1871)]], [[Tauba Winer (b.1877)]], [[Chaia Sura Winer (b.1879)]] and [[Ruchla Winer (b.1893)]] — the births spanning nearly forty years, from the mid-1850s to the 1890s, and carrying the Bełżyce Winer line onward through the nineteenth century toward Ozzy.[^family] He died in Bełżyce before October 1913.[^death]

## Research
*(your reasoning — preserved across every rebuild)*
- **1836 birth act (akt 11) read directly 2026-07-06** (record image on this profile) — b. 29 March 1836, Bełżyce; father "Manas Winer Malarz [painter], aged 27," mother Ruchla, aged 33. Confirms parentage and re-confirms father Manas's occupation (painter).
- Direct line continues: [[Manas Winer (b.1807)]] → **Moszek Lejb** → (next direct-line child, 2x great-grandparent — to be identified) → … → Ozzy.
## Evidence
- **1836 Bełżyce birth act (akt 11) — Moszek Lejb Winer, son of Manas Winer (painter) and Ruchla.**

*Bełżyce birth akt 11 (5 April 1836): "Manas Winer Malarz… lat Dwadzieścia Siedm" presents his son, born 29 March 1836, named "Moszek Lejb Winer"; father's signature at foot.*
## Open questions
- **Next direct-line child** (2x great-grandparent) among his nine children not yet identified here.
- **Which wife is the direct-line mother** — the three marriages ([[Cwetla Kaufman (b.1852)]] / [[Estera Machla Goldzweig (b.1836)]] / [[Sura Laja Nissenbaum (b.1853)]]) need sequencing against the children's births.
- **Death act** (bef. Oct 1913, Bełżyce) to locate and read.
