114900 Translation - Yiddish

7/12/2026 9:03 PM This inscription is on the back of a photograph of a young man or old boy in a military style uniform. It was likely taken in what is now Ukraine, but in the western portion near Lviv which was Polish at the time. It was likely take in the late 1910's or early 1920's. Any help with translating this would be very much appreciated. View the post with its 1 response

7/8/2026 4:39 PM This is the death certificate of either my grandmother's brother or her grandfather. I am looking for any information that will help me figure out which one he is. So, age at death would help, as well as the names of parents, children, or spouses. I hope this text is readable. I found it on JRI-Poland. Here is the link -- His death is recorded under #427: https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/jednostka/-/jednostka/12482467?p_p_id=Jednostka&_Jednostka_delta=1&_Jednostka_cur=108

7/8/2026 4:38 PM Anyone speak Slovak? This is a copy of my grandfather's birth certificate. His parents were Schneier Strom and Sara Strom (nee Ertrachte/Stachl). As far as I know they were Polish, but my grandfather was born in Hungary. I'd be very interested to have an accurate translation, especially of any details regarding his parents, and their address. Many thanks. View the post with its 1 response
