Hello ViewMate,
This is a page from the death file for Lwow 1830. The name of my gg-grandmother, (Sara) Lea Adam, appears there. She was married to Mayer Adam. Her third child was born in 1830 and I think she may have died in childbirth. Can you tell me what any of the information is associated with her death? There seems to be very little written, but perhaps something worthwhile.
Thanks very much, as always, for your efforts. They are appreciated.

I would like the usual genealogy: dates and names, but also any other information like occupation (often included) and spouse (sometimes included) and perhaps parents. Please include witnesses and signatures.

Source is FamilySearch, onluy available at LDS Library.

Thank you!

This is the birth certificate of my great grandmother. With the help of Joe Ross (JRI-Poland
Zakroczym Town Volunteer), I located it at the following location:
https://metryki.genbaza.pl/genbaza,detail,174680,21
While I can get some initial translation using Transkribus and Google Translate, I'm concerned that some resulting inaccuracies will go undetected. It would be much better to have a translation produced by a human.
Many thanks.

I would really like to receive a translation of the certificate. A basic translation would make me very happy, and if it had all the details, it would be amazing.
