4/22/2026 4:10 PM Can anyone translate the writing shown on the postcard?
This is the back of a photograph /postcard. The card has the stamp of a photo studio in Chicago, IL. The front of the postcard is a photo of my great aunt Julia Weinstein (maiden name). I can see that the postcard was never sent...either being handed to a relative or sent in a larger envelope. 		View the post with its 1 response

4/22/2026 4:10 PM In the Jewishgen Marriages and Divorces database, I just discovered this 1888 possible Divorce Record-(number 14) for my great grandparents Shmuel, son of Yevsey Dedinsky and Ryvka, daughter of Nakham Veyner.
I would very much appreciate your help in getting this "divorce?" record translated.
I have not been able to find their original marriage record and did not even know that my great grandparents had been married, divorced and remarried until the wonderful people on jewishgen translated and explained to me that the 1889 marriage record I had found earlier was actually a remarriage.
Thank you very much for your help.
Sincerely,
Naomi Rosenthal

4/22/2026 4:09 PM Though not related to recent genealogy, I think many of us would find this stone’s inscription interesting. It is in the cloister attached to the Lateran Basilica, the seat of the Catholic Bishop of Rome (aka the Pope).

The stone is located few feet from a purported former tomb of Mary Magdalen. I found its appearance in this place astonishing.

Please translate the inscription. Any additional thoughts would be appreciated.

4/22/2026 4:09 PM Attached is a request for identification papers from the Lodz Ghetto of Hinda Dwojra Brodska, in Polish and German. This was the name of my second great aunt, as well as the name of her father, Szmul Majer. The birth year is similar, only her mother was named Sara Bajla (nee Guttmann). She was married to Israel Isidor Glupczynski. I would like to translate the document to be better able to determine whether this is a different individual. Thank you.

114263 Do you recognize?

4/22/2026 4:09 PM This is a postcard sent to my relatives, surname Vinitzky (in the States they took on the surname Weinstein). The family is from Filipow (Filipova) Poland. I imagine this is a relative that was still there in 1922.

I am curious if anyone can identify the wrought iron fence and its location in the town. I do not know the identity of the young man (boy?) and welcome any information on his identity as well.

4/22/2026 4:09 PM Can anyone help me with the translation of this postcard? This is the back of a postcard with a young man standing by the wrought iron fence (Uploaded ).

Is the language Yiddish? What language are the letters (Hebrew cursive ?).

I know that the photo was taken in 1922 in Filipow, Poland. 		View the post with its 5 responses

4/22/2026 4:08 PM Hello,

I'm hoping to have this handwritten Polish text from a Holocaust testimony translated to English, ideally with the full text of the paragraph.

Thanks in advance for your help.

4/22/2026 4:08 PM From Szukaj w Archiwach.

Akta 47 is my great-great-grandfather’s first-cousin’s 1858 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 text are:

- the child’s name: Bella Sura WAJNTROB;
- her father: Wolf WAJNTROB, son of Abram and Mirka;
- her mother: Chana Jochwa SEGALOWICZ, daughter of Izrael.

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