My Grandfather's Baptismal record indicates he was from Bagiencia Dabrowa Tarnoska and baptised in May (?) 1865. As we will be on the September Galacia tour we are wondering about maybe seeing some distant relatives. We are trying to translate but having difficulty with cursive.

Hi L3,

Wishing you a good trip to Poland,

The parish office of Dąbrowa attests to all and sundry of whom it is or may be of interest that in the baptismal registers of this church for the village of Nieczajna Volume XXIV, Page 122 is found the following:

In the year of Our Lord One Thousand Eight Hundred Sixty-five that is 1865 on the seventh day (7) of the month of May was born at house number 36 in Bagienica, and on the 8th day of May 1865 by Reverend Jan (surname missing due to damage) was baptized:

In testimony of which I sign this certificate with my own had and affirm it with the seal of the parish church.

Note: hortulanus/gardener was a term used to describe the social/economic status of an individual. Those thus described owned a cottage and sufficient land for a garden but not farm fields.
