3/25/2026 1:58 PM This is page 7 of Zichron Yaakov by R Yaakov Bendetman. This part apparently includes some relevent information about his relationship with Nachum Kangisser. It would be very useful for it to be translated.

It is in rashi script

kind regards,

David L

3/25/2026 1:57 PM From JRI-Poland.

I think Akta 23 is my great-great-great-grandmother’s first-cousin’s 1833 death record from Andrzejewo or Zaręby Kościelne, Łomża, Poland. I would like it translated in full (or at least everything that isn’t the standard wording of a death record).

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

- the deceased’s name: Dwejra WANTROB;
- her father: Matys WANTROB, son of Herszko;
- her mother: Ruchla, daughter of Icko.

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

3/25/2026 1:56 PM I believe this is the death record of my gr gr grandmother. I am looking to have the whole page translated...on the right is the Yiddish and probably the left is Russian. I will submit a separate request for the Russian side.

This image comes from Jewish Gen...the Ukranian records.

36626 Interpretation

3/25/2026 1:55 PM I would like to know more about the uniform soldiers are wearing: possible dates and service unit as well as country of service. If anyone recognizes the soldiers that would be an unexpected bonus !

Some background: Translation of soldier’s name in top row left is Kalman Wolinsky and translation of top row center name is Beryl Chemandels. My grandmother is Dora Wolinsky who left Stolin, Belarus in 1903 for NY and Kalman may be her brother. It is possible that these are Polish army uniforms from the 1920s but I seek confirmation and further details.

Thank you !

3/22/2026 1:53 PM This record was translated by the wonderful volunteers at Ukraine SIG. I'm wondering if there is any additional information beyond the name and age that may be of genealogical value. Thank you. View the post with its 1 response

3/22/2026 1:53 PM One of the entries on this page relates, I believe, to the birth of Fanny/Frieda/?Frada Schneider. Mother Batsheva nee Lipsitz, father Hirsh Leizer Schneider. Would you please identify the entry and translate details. Many thanks in advance, Neil

(do you happen to know if the ?Russian on the left would provide identical information? Ie is it worth getting that translated too?)

3/22/2026 1:52 PM I am asking you to translate this 1878 Additional Revision List men's page so that I can learn as much as possible about the Kolinsky family. I am presuming that there is information in the paragraph at the bottom that may help my genealogical research. I know the translated names of the three men on this page. However, this is not a standard revision list page, and I think the ages given are as of 1878. Do you agree?
The second page, the women's page, is ID 114039. Because of the way the two pages for this family were copied, it may help to look at that page for some words.

Note: Click on the link above the document to see the image in a separate window. The handwriting will be clear and the words large and readable.

Note: My questions above have been answered in a response to the related posting, ID 114039.

3/22/2026 1:52 PM I would appreciate a translation of this handwritten Russian letter.
It was written in 1938 from Ylikiai in the Telz region of Lithuania. The was the other side of a letter written in Russian from a doctor who examined a patient (Taube).
Thank you
