English translation:
It happened
in the town of Mlawa on the nineteenth day of November in the year
eighteen hundred and ninety nine at ten o’clock in the morning. Judka
Baumgold, age forty six, shop-keeper, and Boruch Goldsztejn, age thirty
six, both of whom residing in the town of Mlawa, appeared and declared
that yesterday at two o’clock in the afternoon Chana Laja [Channah Leah
daughter of Moshe Tzvi] Tachna died in the town of Mlawa, age sixty two,
daughter of the married couple Cytryn (Citrin), Moszek Hersz [Moshe
Tzvi] and Rywka [Rivke], leaving behind her widowed husband Icek Jankief
[Yitzhak Yakov son of Yehudah Ha-Levy], age sixty eight.
After having convinced ourselves with our own eyes about the
death of Chana Laja Tachna, this document was read to the testifiers,
signed by us and them.
Holder of the Civil Registry records, the Mayor of Mlawa. |
