4/1/2026 4:32 PM From Skanoteka.

Akta 73 is an 1865 birth record from Rypin, Płock, Poland for someone who might be a brother of my great-great-grandfather. 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: Daniel LONDON.

Thanks so much! Hopefully the handwriting isn’t too hard to read. 		View the post with its 1 response

114087 Translation - German

3/29/2026 1:55 PM Birth Record 8 at bottom of page. Efraim, son of Zudek Volkmann and Chawe Stemmer. Document is from Polish State Archives, Krakow Archive, Nowy Sacz Branch (formerly in Galicia, Austrian Empire).

I can see that Efraim was born on Jan 8 1883 in House #1 in Podkrasne. His parents were apparently Zudek Volkmann (town of registration is Podkrasne?) and Chawe Stemmer (town is Pisarzowa?) Also, from Column 5, his birth was apparently marked "not lawful" (uneheliche). I know this was routine for Jewish birth registrations as religious marriages were not recognized, only civil marriages.

I’d appreciate as much of a translation as possible ESPECIALLY of the descriptions of the parents (Columns 6 and 7) and Remarks (Column 12). The page was damaged and parts are missing and it’s hard to read. Thank you!
