6/18/2025 1:50 PM my friend asked me to post this document. I think it is her mother's post -war ID in 1970 when she returned to Tacovo under Russian control to visit her brother who was caught behind the Iron curtain after WW2 . View the post with its 2 responses

6/18/2025 1:50 PM This is the Russian version of the name I'd like translated. I am also uploading the name from the same entry as written in Yiddish/Hebrew. Although I can read basic Russian, I can't make out the name in either version - I think it might be an unusual name (but one I have seen in other records from Tesiai. Can anyone help?

111186 Translation - Tombstone

6/18/2025 1:49 PM Two photos of the same headstone, left from about 2018?, right from May 2025. On Chewra.com, they use the same 2018 photo for two (actually three) different records: one for Moshe Lejb with no death date; the other two are for a double headstone for Abraham haKohen (d 1718) and his wife Ester (d 1729). It seems to me that Moshe Lejb is more likely - wouldn't there be hands on the headstone at the top if it were the double haKohens? If someone can confirm for me whose headstone this is, I would appreciate it. Thank you. View the post with its 1 response

6/18/2025 1:49 PM This headstone appears in Chewra.com data on two different records, one for a Mordechai haLevy (d 1767), the other for Jicchak (Ajcik) no surname (d 1745). Can someone tell me who this belongs to? Thank you... View the post with its 2 responses

111190 Translation - Tombstone

6/18/2025 1:49 PM This is the second image of the headstone of my great grandmother Jane Borris (née Fishman), who died 17 July 1912.
The picture is of a second smaller flat headstone that I think was added later, probably due to the weathering on the original headstone.
I would like a translation of as much of the inscription as possible.
She’s buried in Edmonton Federation Cemetery, Montagu Road, North London.
She lived in Dubno (Ukraine) until she emigrated to London with her family at the beginning of the twentieth century.
