Dave,
this is Latin and you can see a list of latin words in https://www.familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Latin_Genealogical_Word_List
I have zoomed out the image but it gets a little blurred. Here is what I can read:
September, 19
idem (the same priest who made the record one line above, whose name I cannot read).
groom: Adalbert (Wojciech) Dabkiewicz, famatus (?) uxor (?)
bride: Juliana Palucki, can't read, ambo de Witkowo (both from Witkowo)
marital status: juvenis et virginis
ages: 23 and 18 (looks like)
faith: cath(olic)
godfathers: Stanislaus (Stanislaw Mari....?) and Adalbertus (Wojciech) Anto.....?
banners proclamed on: cannot read, it mentions Pente(costes)
witnesses: Stanislaus Dabkiewcz, inquilinus and Matthaeus ? Kowalewski/Koralewski, agricola

Thank you Gilberto,
I assume it's been written in russian as you said because the date on top says 1897 the year my grand grandfather was born.
Do you think a russian priest could read it?

Cheers, Michael

Some members of this forum can read russian records. I think if you could post it again on the topic Research in Poland > Russian records translation, it would be more visible.

Hello,
I have a copy of my grand grandfathers' birth certificate from a polish church book.Don't know weather it's german,polish or russian? Need some help with the translation. Can anybody help out?
Thanks!

Michael,

Comparing to other records I have seen, I would say this one is in russian.
However, the date intrigues me, because russian language in polish records became mandatory only from June 1868 on, and I read this record as 1827.

The record is hard to read. I think it is Latin as it was used in old Catholic church books. Hope you find somebody who is familiar with such records.

Thanks a lot Ute for the quick reply. I know it's hard to read even as it is written in Sütterlin I might go and ask an elderly priest if I can find one Cheers!

Thanks Ute,

I kind of see that now. I never would have thought that first letter was a T though. I was thinking it was a G, and could not find any common occupation that fit.

Thanks Jozefs,
Scott is my cousin, and he has that LDS film right now. We were just unsure of the translation shown there. What was Adalbert's occupation in the 3rd column? And what is written in the last column on the right? Still searching that film for the actual record but have not located it yet.
