User Comment:
Note on the name… There is a discrepancy in the name: Jankl Cwerdbaum and Jekel Cwergbajm. After some thought we decided that these are close enough due to alphabetical difference. When using the slavic alphabet, a lowercase d would be written as a g and the au and aj are also suspect to alphabetical differences. This is the though process behind our decision.

Nice work! I agree with your thoughts about the spelling of his name. I look forward to seeing what you uncover in the next stages.
