115012 Translation - Tombstone

7/26/2026 8:09 PM I'd like help translating this gravestone, especially the final line and confirming the date of Feb 2, 1922.

The photo was taken during my recent visit to the Seirijai cemetery. Rogalsky is a family name, so this grave is likely a relative.

The record of this gravestone from Maceva (https://www.litvak-cemetery.info/) gave a partial translation, but when I was there myself, I dug out an additional line, which likely gives the year.

The Maveca translation was:

----
[The upper part of the tombstone is missing]
Ragolski.
She died with good reputation
on the sunrise of Thursday…
the 4th of the month Shvat
… [the rest is not exposed].
----
Can anyone help translate the rest, especially the final line in the image, so I can identify the full date of death?

With gratitude,
Rahel 		View the post with its 3 responses

7/26/2026 8:08 PM I have specific questions about this registration of the marriage of Abram Hersh LIPSZYC and Faigy INDYK:
1. Was the marriage on 23 August 1879?
2. Where was Abram born?
3. What is his mother's name?
4. How old were the bride and groom?
I have been able to work out the rest of the details and would be very appreciative of help with these questions.

7/22/2026 5:30 PM I would like a translation, please, of the birth record in entry number 18 in the lower right corner of this photograph. This entry is the 1839 birth record of Iciek Kopyto, son of my 4th great-grandparents, Abram Kopyto, son of Maier, and Szejna Blizniak, daughter of Juklow. I am looking for a translation of the specific details in this record, to include possible middle names, witness names, locations, professions, etc., that might connect the dots between Abram and Szejna and other members of the extended family. Even if this record simply contains generic birth record language, I am interested in knowing what it says. Thank you very much. View the post with its 1 response
