I have attached a link to the death record of Adam Idzel from Kretinga parish. I think I can figure out some of the information: died at age 30 in 1830, unmarried. Would someone please translate the rest of the record? The numbers for the record are: 194, 13, 30.

Many thanks,
Marie

Hi Marie,

I am not a translator, but I will type out for you here the way I read the words in this record. You should be able to get a reasonably good translation from google translate.

Roku Pańskiego Tysięcznego Osiemsetnego Trzydziestego miesiąca grudnia trzynastego dnia, we wsi Bludzinkach umarł pracowity Adam Idzel ze poplexii S.S. Sakramentami opatrzony.

Wolnego stanu młodzieniec mający od urodzenia lat trzydziescie tego z kościoła Kretyngowskiego parafianin.

Którego ciało od W. Bl. Malachiaszego Dulewicza vice Kurata Kościoła Parafialnego Kretyngowskiego, roku biegącego miesiąca grudnia piętnastego dnia pogrzebione zostało na publicznych parafialnych mogiłach za miastem.

Your image did not include the headings of the columns, so that column with the number 30 could either represent the age of the deceased or it could indicate a house number.

Best regards,
Sophia

Google translate gives the following translation.

On the thirteenth day of December in the year of Our Lord 1830, in the village of Bludzinki, the industrious Adam Idzel died of apoplexy, having been fortified with the Holy Sacraments.

He was a young man of free status, thirty years of age, and a parishioner of the Kretinga church.

His body was buried on the fifteenth day of December of the current year by the Reverend Malachiasz Dulewicz, Vice-Curate of the Kretinga Parish Church, in the public parish cemetery outside the town.

Hope this helps,
Henry

Thanks, Henry! Always nice to see you on the forum.

Marie, that helps. This column header where the answer was 30 is "lata od urodzenia" so it was his age, which matches what it said within the text. I do rather enjoy the style of the person who wrote the column headers. They were not dry labels but rather a set of reminders of what to include ("Kiedy? Gdzie? Kto? / "When? Where? Who?" and so forth).

Best of luck in your continued research,
Sophia
