Zenon and Team at Polish Origins,

I recently downloaded the Cyrillic Handouts file and to my surprise I found a birth certificate from Russian Poland that is almost identical to my grandfather’s. The one from Cyrillic Handouts that I am referring to has a gold colored background and was issued in 1906 in the city of Lublin province of Lubelski. I have uploaded my grandfather’s birth certificate to this post so that researchers can compare the two. Perhaps a translation of the template part of this civil registry document can be made available so that researchers with similar documents can then focus on translating the names and locations. My grandfather Stanisław Pipczeński was born on November 16, 1884 near Chrostkowo in the province of Płock. His parents are Antoni Pipczeński and Antonina Wierzchowska. His birth certificate was issued in 1904.

Beth (besakrupa) posted on the Russian Translations thread ( http://forum.polishorigins.com/viewtopic.php?p=20042#20042 ) link to a very useful resources which can help you in understanding Russian Cyrillic: https://www.sggee.org/research/rus_translate/nap_documents.html . You will find there examples of translations with English text under Russian old Cyrillic.

There is also Cyrillic Handouts pdf file with more detailed explanation of Russian alphabet and more examples. I uploaded it to this post.

Thank you Beth
