I've attached both the German text, as far as I could make it out, and the English translation.

Thank you very much TorSee for both the German and English translations.
Could Anna's date of birth be the 19th? Could her address be 6 Christianistrasse? And could her father Carl's occupation be a factor (manager)?

Hi Blue,
you are right: The date of birth is the 19th ("neunzehnter"), and indeed also today there is a street in Kiel named "Christianistraße".
Indeed one could read the father's occupation as "Faktor", but I don't know what it is.

I know, too much info.
Need help in at least 4 ? marks.
Have this so far to give you an idea of where I am going.
Evidently, this forum does not like Sutterlin script

Hi Louie,

Always so nice to see you on the forum! I cannot help with everything you are asking about, but I can assist with two place names. For Ignatz Dziadek, the organist, his place name begins at the end of one line of text and continues at the beginning of the next line of text: Waltzen which today is Walce.

For Michael Kwossek, you have him as being a school teacher in Twardawa but I believe he is from nearby Trawniki instead.

Best regards,
Sophia
