5/24/2026 4:18 PM I would like a translation of the Hebrew/Yiddish name of the young woman who died. On Jewishgen, her name is listed as "Fale?", from the German side of the record.
Any information about the names of the father or mother of the young woman would also be useful. Thank you. 		View the post with its 2 responses

5/24/2026 4:17 PM From Szukaj w Archiwach.

Akta 152 is my great-great-great-grandmother’s brother’s wife’s 1836 birth record from Suwałki, Suwałki, Poland. I would like it translated in full (or at least everything that isn’t the standard wording of a birth record).

Names that I would expect to see in the text are:

- the child: Chana Jochwa SEGAŁOWICZ;
- her father: Izrael SEGAŁOWICZ;
- her mother: Laia Leyzorowiczów.

Thanks so much! Hopefully the handwriting isn’t too hard to read. 		View the post with its 1 response

5/24/2026 4:17 PM This is the birth record of Szymon Josef HERSTINBLIT, Akt #888, recorded in Lublin in 1890. Son of Szmul and Dwojra Liba. It is a delayed birth record since 6 of his siblings were recorded on the same day and the Akt numbers are in numerical order.
I am looking for:
1. His date of birth
2. His parent's ages
Thank you! 		View the post with its 1 response

5/20/2026 8:57 PM For the far right column, I would like a word-for-word translation.
For the 2nd to right column, I’d like the names of the rabbi and any witnesses.
What is the word in the 4th column on the left side?
I already know that this marriage took place on the 31st of August, and I have the ages of the bride (30) and groom (45).
Thank you.
