Born in: Chervonubor's lomza district, Bialistoc.
Mother's name: Leah Helenberg or Heldenberg.
Father's name: Hanoch Lencznowolski.
Maternal grandma name: Sarah Helenberg or Heldenberg.
Paternal grandma name: Rachel Lencznowolska.
Residence: (1912-1933) Stocheck lukovski;

I would guess that that is going to be somewhere near Lomza (not that far from Bialystok). Let me check later when I have more time.

Sapiezynska 10a Street, Warsaw.

I nearly bought a flat on that street. From memory that building is now a hospital.

explain to me how can I get her birth certificate.

Are you looking for that so you can apply for a Polish passport? If you, you should think about a few other issues before you spend time (and money) getting that birth certificate.

Hi!

I think I can try to help you in somehow, as I'm Pole I live here, I know a little bit about Polish Je. history and I know how to use Polish Archives. I know also a l little bit hebrew and yiddish.

About your roots you need to search for in Polish Archives, Je. History Institute and IPN (The Institute of Polish Memory). Let's start from the right prononcination

surname: lencznowolska. It's rather wrong as it's difficult to utter it in polish. I think it should Lesznowolska or Lęcznowolska. I have no idea what is Chervonubor. Lomza it's £omża and it's a city like Białystok in the East of Poland. Stocheck lukovski it's rather Stoczek £ukowski.

Residence: (1912-1933) Stocheck lukovski;
(1933 – 1939) Sapiezynska 10a Street, Warsaw.

Whose residance exacly it was? Do you know something more about them. If the were ortodox Je. Chasidic, what sinagouge they attend to.

It's Czerwony Bór. See here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czerwony_Bór,_Podlaskie_Voivodeship

how can I get her birth certificate.

You can try to email the State Archive in Białystok: sekretariat_ap@bialystok.ap.gov.pl

It's Czerwony Bór - Yes you're right I didn't figure it out.

You can try to email the State Archive in Białystok.
This is good idea but as I know it's better to write in Polish than english or both :) And if you know something more about your family it would be easier find something as some documents can they have in Kahals or in ŻIH. I was searching for some information about my grandfather and they were really helpful but unfortunetly it lasted a year but they were looking for in all Archives.
