4/28/2024 8:55 PM This letter is from Albert Gruenthal. He is writing to his son, Hans. Hans is my grandfather. The letter is from a personal collection.

A full translation would be nice but we are mostly interested in names and relations and any information on their movements during German occupation.

4/28/2024 8:55 PM Page 1 of Akt #126 recorded in Iasi, Romania I believe in 1891. I am looking for as much information as possible from this record.
I see 1889 at the bottom of the page so I'm guessing the marriage took place then but it was recorded in 1891?
I'm looking for the exact date of marriage, ages, occupations if listed not only of the bride and groom but of the parents (especially of the groom) as his parents are my great great grandparents.
The information on the witnesses would also be appreciated. This is page 1 of the document. Page two has been submitted for you to look at.

4/28/2024 8:54 PM AKTA 122 TRANSLATION | RUSSIAN TO ENGLISH
I would very much appreciate an English translation of Akta 122 from scan #34 of this document, which I believe is an 1895 birth record of Ruchla Rozenbaum. I am searching for information about my husband's grandmother of that name who married Abram Szteingarten and lived in Warsaw during WWII.
