112201 Translation - Tombstone

9/17/2025 2:17 PM I'm documenting a cemetery for JOWBR. The translation of most of this is straightforward, however would like help especially with the line underneath the cut out (Rivka bas R' Yosef z"l) that has "Harav Gershon" in it. I would like to document this as well as possible. Is this noting family lineage, etc? Is there a second surname there? Thanks for the help! Much appreciated

112206 Translation - Tombstone

9/17/2025 2:17 PM Hello, would appreciate any help translating the Hebrew on tombstone.
The English side says name Ida Lena Levenson, died June 30, 5687 (hard to read) (I think..maybe 1927).
However on Hebrew side, it looks like it may say "Our mother" "Yelena" (?) and I cannot properly distinguish the rest.
I am trying to see if this is my g-g grandmother Lena Levenson, or not.
Any help is appreciated, thank you.

In Geni, the child is named LAUT Nikolas. A kind member of JGDG looked for Miklos, his Hungarian given name, and found his birth record. Please translate the entire document. (The last column is empty and so is not included in the image.) 		View the post with its 2 responses

9/17/2025 2:15 PM The transcription describes this family as Avrum (son of Itsko Yukel), his wife Reyza, and a son Iosko Mordko. Other images (uploaded separately) are transcribed differently. I am wondering if some names were combined in this record and the family might be - Avrum (son of Itkso, grandson of Yukel), his wife Reyza, and two sons - Ios and Mordko. If there is any additional information about the family, I would appreciate the translation. Thank you. View the post with its 1 response
