Hi,
This is the death record of Cyrla FERBER from 1837.
I'm interested in understanding two things about its translation:
- Is her parents's surname is necesseraly Raychberg, or could it be Rotbard?
- Are both of her parents dead?
thanks,
Ido

4/5/2026 4:36 PM Hello,
To answer your questions:

In this record, her parents' surname is definitely RAYCHBERG. It could be inaccurate, though, seeing the age of this record. Other documents (such as Cyrla's marriage record) would help verify this information.

Yes, both parents are deceased, as indicated by the words "oboyga nieżyiących" (modern spelling "obojga nieżyjących").

Let me know if you would like other information.
