Citizenship by Descent Document Question

I want to obtain Polish Citizenship and eventually a passport through the citizenship by descent program. I understand that my grandmother's marriage certificate, naturalization papers and birth certificate would be needed as she was naturalized in 1996, and I was born in 1975. Due to her being in a work camp during WW2 and losing almost everything her family owned, she had to have a "Testimony of Birth and Baptism" document created so she could get married. Will this document be sufficient in place of her birth certificate if I meet all other qualifications?

We asked one of the expert we have been working with Katarzyna Kasia Kacprzak to explain it to you.
