This is the birth record for Ester Sedledsky/Estera Sedlecka, born 1892 in Pulawy (currently in Poland). A link to this document was provided next to Ester’s name as a birth record on JRI Poland. Could you please provide as full translation as possible, with names, dates, place names, and occupations? It looks like her father’s name is Joseph, but I don’t know any other information.

Thank you!
