From JRI-Poland.

Akta 6 is my great-great-grandfather’s sister’s 1838 death record from Zaręby Kościelne or Andrzejewo in 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’s name: Chaia Herynger;
- her father: Chaim Herynger, son of Matys and Malka Pesa;
- her mother: Bela Sura Wajntrob, daughter of Abraham and Mirka.

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