We have been researching Jewish ancestors in Holland.  we have access to the marriage records which are fantastic but are struggling to read some of them.  Some can be managed using the old favourite google translate but we are struggling with this record.  Is there anyone who is able to read this record from 1660 for us?

Thank you

Can anyone help us please?  We are trying to tie up some loose ends with a branch of the family who went out to South Africa.  John Isidore Zane can be found on the passenger records travelling to S Africa in 1940 and we are told he married in Moira Rosenberg in 1943.  We can find evidence of Moira's parents but nothing about his marriage.  We have a photo showing the marriage which we believe is outside the synagogue in Johannesburg.  We know that they returned to the UK in the early 1960's.  John Isidore and Moira had 3 son's Clive, David and Jeffrey.  we have evidence of John Isidore's parents going out to visit them in 1947 and 1950.

Any help about where to look to complete picture with marriage records and birth records would be gratefully received.  We have tried family search and this is where we have found the info re Moira's family and the can see there are some court documents in the south African archives but don't know how to go about asking for any further info.

Regards

Thank you for all this information.  This is a useful website to know about.  We know that Victor Died December 1974.  Attached is his obituary from the Jewish Chronicle Publication date 20th December 1974.  I have tried through the Paris records but have noticed that it is isn't always completely in order and I haven't found a method to search it unless you have the actual certificate number.

You have been so helpful thank you

We are trying to trace parts of our family who emigrated to France. 
Firstly we have an Uncle who was born in the UK in London in 1904.  His name was Victor Sampson although the rest of the family did not have the P in the spelling.  At some point he married a lady called Rosette Kamenschtikof who was from Paris.  we have no idea where they married although the assumption has always been they married in Paris.  The first child was born June 1928 (Milly) in Paris,  She told us that date but we have no records.  Then there was Georges Jacob in 1929 and we have his death record which was 1972.  Then there was a male child who died within days of birth in 1931 and a girl called Liliane in 1934 who died in 1934 but again no records for either of these. 

We cannot find Victor's death which was the Dec 14th 1979.  We know this from the obituary in the Jewish press and his daughter Milly told us he committed suicide. 

The family supposedly came to the UK circa 1941 and Victor allegedly served in the forces and was sent Dieppe as a translator.   The children are rumoured to have lived with grandparents in London but also rumoured to have been sent to Scotland. 

We have Rosette's death in 2000 from My Heritage.

we would very much like to clarify the myth and the rumour surrounding this part of the family and any support that anyone has out there would be gratefully received.
