It would be easier to help you if I knew where this record was from because then I could look at what surnames are common in that parish. It can be helpful, when posting records, to provide a link to where you found the record if it was found online, or else an image of the whole page so it is easier to study how the writer formed their letters when writing.<br /> <br /> The person being baptized is Anna Maria and the abbreviation in parentheses following her name is confirming for you that she was given two names. Beneath her name is the abbreviation &quot;Ob&quot; telling you who her midwife was, Maria with a surname that is a little hard to decipher. It could be Danecka, I'm not sure, and it's probably not important to you.<br /> <br /> Anna Maria's father's name is written as Joannes, which in Polish is Jan and in English is John. You probably know the surname already. Does it begin with D? Derzanowski? Jan's mother's name was Antonina B. Anna Maria's mother's name looks like Paulina Pleczynska, the daughter of Kajetan Pleczynski and Frederika Krap.<br /> <br /> I'd be happy to take a second look if you could give me more to work with.<br /> <br /> Best regards,<br /> Sophia https://forum.polishorigins.com/viewtopic.php?p=91484#91484 Sophia Thu Jul 16, 2026 6:02 am https://forum.polishorigins.com/viewtopic.php?p=91484#91484 https://forum.polishorigins.com/viewtopic.php?p=91481#91481 <br /> Author: <a href='https://forum.polishorigins.com/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=14730'>susancoles</a><br /><br /> Posted: Wed Jul 15, 2026 8:14 pm<br /><br /> <br /><br /> Hello, I have located this record regarding my great grandmother and I am interested in the names and location of this birth document.
