Greetings all!
I could use some help with the attached marriage record from 1865. I'm able to pick out the names, but am unable to read/decipher/understand everything else.

I believe Nicolaus Maczka may be a sibling of my 2nd g.grandmother Marianna Maczka, about whom I've been unable to find any records. The groom's parents names are Antoni Maczka and Angnielis Urban. The rest is undecipherable to me and, I'm embarrassed to admit, I can't even tell if the record is in Polish or Latin.

The relative ages and time-frames are consistent with what I might expect. My 2nd g.gmother Marianna married Wawrzyniec Jucha and this branch of my ancestry line has proven to be the final puzzle and most elusive in my research

I'm looking for any small bit of information within this record that can shed more clues for me to follow. I "think" I can see "Gwizdow" listed in the written information and another reference to "Maczka", but little else.

Greatly appreciate having some helpful eyes who can understand what information is hidden to me!

As always, thank you so much!
Joe

The link to the record is here, and is Scan #8, record no.10 on the right hand page...I tried to attach it to this post but couldn't get it to work.

Hi Joe,
This record is written in Latin and Polish, so it would be nice if Dave could look at this.
Date: November 14, 1865
Mikołaj Mączka: 28 years old, a son of Antoni and Agnieszka nee Urban
Agnieszka Grząsko: 23 years old, a daughter of Marcin and Anna nee Brudniak. The bride's guardian (Jan Grześko) gave permission for this marriage.

Regards,
-Barb
