June 1890
Teofipol', Teofipol's'kyi district, Khmel'nyts'ka oblast, Ukraine

According to his gravestone, Abraham died at the end of 1938 at age 48, implying a birth year of 1890.

In his 1922 naturalization application, Abraham provided a birth date of 1889-06-10, implying an age at death of 49. The place of birth is hard to read: Teophirol, Staro-Konstantinov, province of Vol [Volhynia?], Russia

In his 1930 application for a replacement certificate of naturalization, Abraham provided a birth date of May 1890, which is consistent with his gravestone. The place of birth is hard to read: ?rephipol, Russia

In the RCMP report associated with his 1930 application, filed in 1931, Abraham provided a birth date of June 1891. The place of birth is clearly typed: Taofepel, Kasentine, Russia

A search of towns in JewishGen.org clearly identifies Abraham's own of birth: Teofipol, Ukraine (38 km west of Kiev)
