(Yes - I'm the one who you helped in identifying Grzymki in that handwritten document.) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The translation attached to that document is actually one I know is not very accurate (I have a better translation); here's the good one (attached - some of my notes are at the bottom).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also can find no information on Felix's wife, Victoria Kutner - would you mind checking the State Archives to see if there's any information on her? The marriage ledger states that she was born in Skloty, which I believe is part of Nowe parish in Kutno county.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you very much!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Despite all my research efforts, records do not exist online and/or are not easily accessible for what I'm seeking. I'm seeking help in finding a Poland-based researcher to investigate church records in Grzymki (Podlaskie voivodeship, Lomza county, Przytuly gmina).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm seeking the birth record for my great-grandfather, Felix Jaworski, whose 1901 Roman Catholic Polish marriage record indicates a birth year of 1873 in Grzymki. I believe this would indicate Romany parish. Unfortunately, these records are not posted anywhere online and may only be accessible via a local visit to the region/church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If someone could please direct me to a researcher experienced in this region, I'd very much appreciate it. The most recent research company I contacted does not have a researcher there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Matt&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
can You please show me your greatgrandfather marriage record?&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi there,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes! Here is my great-grandparents' marriage certificate from NMP in Lodz in 1901.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I believe he was born in 1872-1874 in Grzymki to parents Franciszek &amp;quot;Franz&amp;quot; Jaworski and Barbara Lewandowska (I've also seen reference to their names being Roman Jaworski and Walerya Kuluck - gets confusing). The most reliable document I have (the attached marriage record) shows the parents as Franciszek Jaworski and Barbara Lewandowska. I also wonder what name variances exist for the name Barbara - that may help solve some of the puzzle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I do know that Felix also had at least 2 silbings: Prakseda Jaworski (born approx 1861-1863) and Roman Jaworski (born approx 1874-1875). Finding their birth records would likely lead to Felix's. Also, I'm sure it would help to locate a marriage record for Felix's parents, but I'm not sure where they were married, so I'm not sure where to start there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another helpful member of the forum who has some scans from Romany was unable to find Felix or his siblings' birth records. He mentioned I might try looking at nearby Przytuly, but I'm not sure how to go about that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I very much appreciate any help you can offer - as you are well aware, this is a challenging task! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you very much! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Matt Jaworski&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
there is a lot of mistakes in translation you sent in pdf file.&lt;br /&gt;
Nevertheless i remember that you asked about this in your previous topic.&lt;br /&gt;
I will ask about it in State Archives.</description>

&lt;br /&gt;
Despite all my research efforts, records do not exist online and/or are not easily accessible for what I'm seeking. I'm seeking help in finding a Poland-based researcher to investigate church records in Grzymki (Podlaskie voivodeship, Lomza county, Przytuly gmina).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm seeking the birth record for my great-grandfather, Felix Jaworski, whose 1901 Roman Catholic Polish marriage record indicates a birth year of 1873 in Grzymki. I believe this would indicate Romany parish. Unfortunately, these records are not posted anywhere online and may only be accessible via a local visit to the region/church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If someone could please direct me to a researcher experienced in this region, I'd very much appreciate it. The most recent research company I contacted does not have a researcher there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Matt&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
can You please show me your greatgrandfather marriage record?</description>
