I'm trying to get information about two lens I recently acquired.
1) No.5 Voightlaender Heliar 11 3/4 inch f4.5 lens. U.S. New York Serial No. 59771 Black finish.
2) No. 2 Voightlander & Sohn, Wien Braunschneig Brass finish lens Serial No. 30593. No focal length marked, but I assume it is about 10 to 12 inches.

Your second lens:

"No. 2 Voightlander & Sohn, Wien Braunschneig Brass finish lens Serial No. 30593. No focal length marked, but I assume it is about 10 to 12 inches"

Is most likely a Euryscop Series IV. This is an f6 rapid rectilinear type for general use.

cheers
