114112 Translation - Hungarian

4/1/2026 4:35 PM Greetings and Chag Pesach Sameach!

I have a few of these Hungarian birth records..this one from 1903 for my grandpa’s younger sister Helen, one of 11 children of my great grandparents who I’m told married for love. (They were not Orthodox or Hasidic.)

May I trouble someone for a complete translation, or a recommendation of someone who might provide this? It is my hope that this and the couple other records hold clues that can help me break through a wall with my great grandma Regina Klein’s mother, Pepe Reinicz, and her ancestral line. Regina left Hungary to join husband Mozes (a grocer) in Pittsburgh the year following Helen’s birth. She came over with 8 children in tow, ages 1 to 16!

Thanks in advance for help or advice.
