Hello. First, I have an account on Ancestry, but I prefer Wikitree. Can someone tell me if it's okay to post public records like the one below to WT? Second, is someone able to tell me what this says besides DOBs and Marriage dates. I'm interested in the locations, religion, names of the parents, etc. Any help is appreciated

I wanted to share this family photo of Leo Jacobus with the community. Location: Berlin, Germany. Date: .

Thank you so much for your help with this <3

Does anyone know anything about the name Leibusch? I haven't been able to find anything about the name, its meaning or the person behind it. According to JewGen, it is a diminutive of leib and could be alternatively spelly Leibush or Leibish. I would love help finding more data about Leibush Jacobus since his name is less common, I'm hoping his name will stick out

Hi, I'm not sure this will help but perhaps it means "lion". I found in the
"Biographisches Handbuch der Rabbiner" edited by Michael Brocke and Julius Carlebach on page 107 in footnote 214, the use of German names alongside other Jewish names....

"Erinnert sei namentlich an die Widergabe ... von Juda durch Arjeh, Löw,Löb, Leib, Lew, Levi, Löbel, Leibusch, Löbusch, Leo, Lion oder Leopold"

Remember in particular the use of Arjeh, Löw, Löb, Leib, Lew, Levi, Löbel, Leibusch, Löbusch, Leo, Lion or Leopold for Juda.
