3/15/2026 1:56 PM Bonjour, il s'agit de la liste de derniers Juifs ayant travaillé à Chelmno. Je pense que le texte est en Yiddish. Beaucoup de membres de ma famille sont morts dans ce camp. Peut-être figure t'il sur cette liste ? Merci à qui pourra traduire ce texte.

3/15/2026 1:56 PM I am trying to ascertain where this address might be. Given the family members who were the senders, it would make sense to be Grodno, in present-day Belarus, but the Polish text is throwing me off. Any insights are greatly appreciated! View the post with its 2 responses

113901 Translation - Yiddish

3/15/2026 1:56 PM I am helping a family learn more about their overseas ancestry and this document seems like it could yield information. It was sent in 1933 to a family member in Toledo Ohio. I know it's a lot of text so if somebody could paraphrase, I would be greatly appreciative.

PS- A fellow member alerted to me that I've uploaded this upside down. I noticed the features allow viewing rotated 180 degrees, I think that ought to fix it. I didn't want to post a duplicate post.

Appreciate any insight!

113884 Translation - Polish

3/15/2026 1:55 PM From JRI-Poland.

I think Akta 18 is my great-great-great-grandmother’s sister’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: Rywka WAYNTROB/WANTROB;
- her father: Abraham/Abram/Abraam WAYNTROB/WANTROB, son of Herszko;
- her mother: Mirka, daughter of Idzko and Zelda.

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

3/15/2026 1:55 PM Hi
Thank you for translate the birth certificate of a perhaps member of my family, my great-grandmother. Could you please translate it with as much detail as possible, as this is the second document I have ever had translated? There is the same name and given name for Sura Frajberg but not the same birth date on the marriage act and on one of the birth act. I found online 3 birth act but none with the same date as the one on the marriage acte.

Thank you very much.
