2. The Dwojra Zysla could be a previously unknown sister.

4. Bill Everett translation of marriage record of Yenta

Dear Richard McMurtry,

Following is a quick translation of your first Russian document,

line-by-line and word-by-word. Interpolated words required by the sense of

Russian case endings are enclosed in square brackets. When one Russian word

is translated by more than one English word, those words are joined by

hyphens. Also, a hyphen is used when a word is broken between two lines. All

this should help you match the translation and the original.

I look forward to your questions, which often help to clear up uncertainties

and errors in translating. In particular, names are difficult because,

depending on the handwriting, some letters may appear very similar. And

there are some letters that may be written in several alternate forms.

Ordinary text is generally different: knowing the word, one can then

recognize the letters that spell it.

Regarding the name, I transliterated Enta according to the transliteration

rules I normally follow. It would be pronounced Yenta (some might also

transliterate in as Jenta, with the German or Scandinavian J [Yay]).

If you have Russian acquaintances, I would be happy to transcribe all or

part of the document(s) into contemporary Russian or to transliterate. This

would help them to recognize the handwriting and the very slight differences

between pre-revolutionary and post-revolutionary Russian.
