114129 Translation - Yiddish

4/5/2026 4:01 PM Hello,
I would greatly appreciate help translating these two related cursive Yiddish letters.
Letter 1 (136): Written by my grandfather, Abram Icek Feldman, from Raanana (Palestine) in May 1937.
Letter 2 (138): The reply from his cousin, Yocheved. You can see her sign-off "דיין קוזינע יוכבד" at the end.
Any help translating the full text would be wonderful. Thank you! 		View the post, there are no responses

4/5/2026 4:01 PM I have been given a translation through this website which I am grateful for. I uploaded the image to myheritage new translation app and am confused by the translation. They say the groom parents are Meyer and Sura Gitli nee Hochberg. I thought her maiden name was Zlotkowska. I also want to confirm the brides mother's maiden name is Frumkin. I am also confused by the way the bride's name was listed according to the translation as Igelka Sosha Itskova Dobush. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks View the post with its 1 response

4/5/2026 4:00 PM I would appreciate help in translating the information on my grandfather's birth record. According to the JewishGen translation, his birth record is No. 23, and his birthdate 28 April 1899 in the Julian calendar, but when I convert the Julian date to the Hebrew date I don't get 30 something but 1 Siwan 5659. Can someone explain this discrepancy? Also, I understand that the text at the bottom of the page may be the rabbi's certification of the births that I assume took place the preceding month: 8 boys and 2 girls, but I'm curious what the rest of the text says.
