From Skanoteka.

Akta 54 is an 1874 birth record from Rypin, Płock, Poland for someone who might be my great-great-grandfather’s sister. I would like it translated in full (or at least everything that isn’t the standard wording of a birth record).

Names that I would expect to see in the text are:

- the child’s name: Ryfka LONDON;
- her father: Salomon LONDON, son of Dawid & Gaila;
- her mother: Szprinca GROSSZTEJN, daughter of Rubin & Bayla.

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