75068	Translation - German		9/8/2019 4:30 PM	This is pages 12-13 of the file "Bergen-Enkheim No. 2388" which I acquired from the Institut für Stadtgeschichte in Frankfurt. The name of the file is Revision und Bestätigung des Inventars über den Nachlass der Sarchen Heß wegen der Wiederverehelichung ihres Ehemannes Raphael Heß II, Laufzeit: 1860 – 1861 [Revision and confirmation of the inventory of the estate of Sarchen Hess because of the remarriage of her husband Raphael Hess II, duration: 1860 - 1861] Raphael Hess II and Sarchen (Neuhof) Hess were my 4th great-grandparents. There are many pages in this document but I have chosen to ask for help with these because it appears to list their children, including my 3rd great-grandfather Benjamin/Bernard Hess (b. 19/11/1844). I will upload some other pages from this document separately. Many thanks! -Amy Schiwitz	View the post with its 1 response

There are many pages in this document but I have chosen to ask for help with these because it appears to mention other individuals with the surname Neuhof, which could potentially help me identify Sarchen's parentage. I will upload some other pages from this document separately.	View the post with its 1 response

75065	Translation - German		9/8/2019 4:29 PM	This is page 1 of the file "Bergen-Enkheim No. 2505" which I acquired from the Institut für Stadtgeschichte in Frankfurt. The archivist shared it with me when I enquired about my 4th great-grandfather Raphael Hess II, but I have no idea what the document's original purpose is. Of course a full translation would be nice, but any clues or even a gist of the contents would be helpful. I will upload the other pages of this document separately. Many thanks! -Amy Schiwitz	View the post with its 2 responses

75044	Translation - German		9/8/2019 4:27 PM	This should be page 2 of the marriage record for Leopold Lucas and Dorothea Janower. Would like to learn the names of any witnesses, etc. that might be listed. And also what information is included in the record that was apparently added at a later date at the bottom of the page. I believe the Nazi government gave Dorothea the name of Sara? I have heard about the practice but have never seen actual documentation in a form like this. Appreciate any assistance.
