Category: Translation - Polish Approval Date: 2/1/2026 1:27 PM Family Surname: ADAM Country: Poland Town: Lwow Date of Image: 1830	Click the picture to enlarge	Hello ViewMate, This is a page from the death file for Lwow 1830. The name of my gg-grandmother, (Sara) Lea Adam, appears there. She was married to Mayer Adam. Her third child was born in 1830 and I think she may have died in childbirth. Can you tell me what any of the information is associated with her death? There seems to be very little written, but perhaps something worthwhile. Thanks very much, as always, for your efforts. They are appreciated. Judith Adam Toronto

Hello,
You’re right that there isn’t much, unfortunately. (This is in German.) Infant deaths seem to have parents’ names recorded, but not for Lea as she was an adult. Here is everything of use:

No. [34]

Death: 29 August 1830

House Number 59¾[?]

Name of Decedent: Lea ADAM

Sex: Female

Age: 28 years

Disease/Cause of Death: Pulmonary disease [“Lungensucht”—an archaic term for a variety of lung afflictions]
