5/20/2026 8:56 PM From Szukaj w Archiwach.

Akta 13 is my great-great-grandfather’s first-cousin’s 1862 birth record from Zaręby Kościelne, Łomża, 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 record are:
- the child: Zelek WAJNTROB;
- his father: Wolf WAJNTROB, son of Abram/Abraham WAJNTROB and Mirka Idźkowicz;
- his mother: Chana Jochwa SEGAŁOWICZ daughter of Izrael SEGAŁOWICZ and Laia.

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

I am including a second entry for translation of a man with the same name and whose father's name was unknown. I am trying to figure out which Dawid is the one I am intereste3d in. Perhaps it includes a spouse's name? OR anything else that could help me.

I believe it is record #49

5/20/2026 8:56 PM This image a death record for Ios Dawid TZIPINIUK, who died Apr 29, 1863..

I submitted another record with the same name, and the same town.

Any info that could help me tease out who these two men were would be helpful. Perhaps a spouse's name was included? A date of birth...?

Thank you.
