Reply with quote

Attached is a birth record (in Polish) for one of the children of my third great grandparents. The given name, circled in red, does not look familiar. Rafel? Rafael? Would someone please translate or give an opinion?

Many thanks,
Marie

Hi Marie,
The name is Rafał which is a boy's name. You'd recognize it as Raphael in English.
Good luck in your search,
Sophia
