114667 Translation - Polish

6/10/2026 4:01 PM From Skanoteka.

Akta 2 is my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather’s 1848 death record from Rypin, Płock, Poland. I would like it translated in full (or at least everything that isn’t the standard wording of a death record).

Names that I would expect to see in the text are:
- the deceased: Lewin GROTSZTEYN/GROSZTEJN.
- his son: Rubin GROTSZTEYN.

Thanks so much! Hopefully the handwriting isn’t too hard to read.

114662 Translation - Yiddish

6/7/2026 5:03 PM Dear Community,

I am looking for help in deciphering and translating a post-war historical testimony written in handwritten Yiddish cursive.

This document comes from the Yad Vashem Archives, Record Group: M.1.E, File Number: 548 (Collection of the Central Historical Committee in Munich, 1946-1947).

The entire document consists of 16 pages. I have uploaded the first page here as a sample. You can view all 16 pages of the complete diary/testimony in high resolution here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MmpSc_qEO4J0RnYRbxTBJ_pSXRNwFWGZ?usp=sharing

Any help with a full translation, a partial translation, or even a summary highlighting names of people, family relations, dates, and locations mentioned in the text would be immensely appreciated. This is of great importance for historical research.

Thank you so much for your time and expertise!
