113558 Translation - Polish

2/8/2026 3:01 PM From Metryki GenBaza.

Akta 10 is my great-great-grandfather’s sister’s 1862 marriage record from Zaręby Kościelne, Poland. I would like it translated in full (or at least everything that isn’t the standard wording of a marriage record).

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

- the bride: Estera Enia HERYNGER, daughter of Chaim HERYNGER and Bela Sura WAJNTROB;
- the groom: Chaim Joskowicz GRZYBOWICZ.

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

And if I failed to find the right document in the archives so this scan doesn’t mention any of the people I’m expecting then there’s no need to translate it, just let me know I made a mistake.

2/8/2026 2:59 PM Hello. I'm not sure if this is Markus Kohn's birth certificate (number 13), as one source states he was born in 1839, but the certificate is from 1840. If it lists his parents as Izaac Kohn and Frajdla Hajman, could you please transcribe it into Polish or translate it into English? Thanks, best regards View the post with its 1 response

2/8/2026 2:59 PM The first entry seems to be a record of Wolf Presser's marriage. Who did he marry? Who attended the wedding? What did the bride wear? Okay I know it doesn't say what she wore, but I'm very curious to know what else is written here. Thanks so much for your help. View the post with its 2 responses

2/4/2026 3:47 PM Can someone translate this Russian record (the top one, record 57) into English for me? I believe it is my father's first cousin born in Russia. The rest of the family came to the US but Rivke (Rebecca) stayed behind to get married.
Thank you, Anne Krupnik Rosenblum
