2/4/2026 3:45 PM From JRI-Poland.

Akta 6 is my great-great-grandfather’s sister’s 1838 death record from Zaręby Kościelne or Andrzejewo in 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: Chaia Herynger;
- her father: Chaim Herynger, son of Matys and Malka Pesa;
- her mother: Bela Sura Wajntrob, daughter of Abraham and Mirka.

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

2/4/2026 3:45 PM Would much appreciate if for listing #37 (bottom of page) someone could translate the entries in columns 7, 8 and 12; for the latter, it may be that the upper note is the from the father (Salomon), indicating paternity because Moses is recorded as illegitimate, i.e., the parents did not have a civil marriage that was officiated by an authorized Rabbi. The lower note would seem to refer to a subsequent civil marriage either in May 1920 or March 1915). thanks View the post, there are no responses

2/4/2026 3:45 PM I believe this is a death record for Chana Presser, a sibling of my great grandparent. I believe her parents are Abraham and Malka Sura. View the post with its 1 response

2/4/2026 3:45 PM This is a marriage record for Dache Presser daughter of Abraham and Malka Sura. Who did she marry? Is there information about Abraham and Malka Sura's parentage? I'm curious about what other names, places and dates are in the record. View the post with its 1 response

113522 Translation - Hebrew

2/4/2026 3:44 PM The image is from pages 7-8 of a book called "Proben aus dem literarischen Nachlasse des herrn Israel Deutsch ... Rabbiners zu Beuthen O./S." written by Israel's brothers David and Abraham Deutsch. The first chapter, about 8 pages, is a a short biography of Israel, and the German text on the last two pages say this is the inscription on his headstone (without any translation). Israel's headstone no longer exists in Bytom (Beuthen), to my knowledge, but I am very interested in what the inscription said, if anyone can help. Thank you! View the post with its 1 response

2/4/2026 3:44 PM I want to know what it says.
The source is a relative (who is also a member of JewishGen.) She is just starting out trying to understand all these documents she cannot read. We are both descendants of Tanur in Lithuania.
Thank you for your help. 		View the post with its 1 response
