4/12/2026 4:05 PM From Skanoteka.

Akta 54 is an 1874 birth record from Rypin, Płock, Poland for someone who might be my great-great-grandfather’s sister. 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: Ryfka LONDON;
- her father: Salomon LONDON, son of Dawid & Gaila;
- her mother: Szprinca GROSSZTEJN, daughter of Rubin & Bayla.

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

Akta 11 is my great-great-great-grandmother’s sister’s 1847 marriage 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 marriage record).

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

- the bride’s name: Zelda WAJNTROB/WANTROB.
- her father: Abram WAJNTROB/WANTROB, son of Herszko;
- her mother: Mirka, daughter of Idzko & Zelda;
- the groom’s name: Josk ZAREMBER.

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