114892 Translation - Russian

7/8/2026 4:39 PM This is the death certificate of either my grandmother's brother or her grandfather. I am looking for any information that will help me figure out which one he is. So, age at death would help, as well as the names of parents, children, or spouses. I hope this text is readable. I found it on JRI-Poland. Here is the link -- His death is recorded under #427: https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/jednostka/-/jednostka/12482467?p_p_id=Jednostka&_Jednostka_delta=1&_Jednostka_cur=108

7/8/2026 4:38 PM Anyone speak Slovak? This is a copy of my grandfather's birth certificate. His parents were Schneier Strom and Sara Strom (nee Ertrachte/Stachl). As far as I know they were Polish, but my grandfather was born in Hungary. I'd be very interested to have an accurate translation, especially of any details regarding his parents, and their address. Many thanks. View the post with its 1 response

The photo was taken in the city of Kremenets, and I assume the inscription is the name of the place.

Could you please help?

114886 Translation - Yiddish

7/8/2026 4:37 PM Hi! I am trying to get the Yiddish translated for the back of this photo. It would be deeply meaningful as these are my great-grandparents who were killed in the Shoah.

Thank you,

114879 Photo Identification

7/8/2026 4:36 PM I have a photograph of two women taken in Vienna. I am trying to understand which generation of ancestors they are. I'm hoping their clothes could provide a general date and thus the general ages of the two, and thus confirm who the likely women are.

The woman on the left could be Josepha Haslinger (born 1867) or her niece Pauline Anhaltzer (born 1888). The woman on the right could be Emma Haslinger (born 1865), sister of Josepha, or her niece Martha Anhaltzer (born 1887). (Martha is the sister of Pauline Anhaltzer).

The picture was taken in Vienna, where the Aunts lived and the nieces were born. The photo studio listed on the back says:
A·M·SCHEIN
WIEN, IX.
NUSSDORFERSTRASSE 10·12
Telefon: 5034...(can't read the rest)

The two nieces immigrated to the US in 1893. Pauline or Martha could have visited Vienna as adults. Emma Haslinger immigrated to the US in 1893 but made many trips back to Vienna between then and 1936. Josepha left Vienna in 1939. 		View the post with its 2 responses
