Hello!
I have been trying to find a birth record for my grandmother, Mary Kuczmarski, born Marianna Mrozinski. I have a copy of her marriage record, and it shows she was born in Kalisz, at St. Nicholas parish in 1906. We always celebrated her birthday on September 14.
I searched the Polish state records for that parish in Kalisz for the year 1906:
https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/jednostka/-/jednostka/11950414
But I am unable to find her record there. I am new to Polish genealogy so maybe I am on the wrong track!
I have included her info from her marriage record. I believe her mother's name was Katarzyna Blasczyk and her father's name was Josef Mrozinski. (I also searched high and low on Geneteka for her and her parent's info but couldn't find it there either.)
If anyone has any tips on finding her (and/or her parent's records), I would appreciate it!
Thanks to the helpful people on this forum, I made much progress on her husband's side of the family, which is great!
Mary

Wow! Thank you so much!!! Before coming to this forum, I was beginning to think the record didn't exist. I am so excited to delve into her history more. And thanks for translating it also! I am delighted.

Thank you Barb!
I now see what I was doing wrong when I searched for records--I though there was just one single index at the very end of the scanned pages, so I was looking for her name in the index at the very last pages of the scans. I now see that there are indexes throughout the book. This makes sense! I still would have had a tough time recognizing the name, not to mention trying to translate it! But I'm hoping it will be easier for me next time.
Thanks again,
Mary

Hi Mary,
I want to point out one detail about using Geneteka which may be helpful to you in future searches. If you have the search screen open like this, looking at all records for St. Nicholas church in Kalisz but without entering any surname or given name for your search:
https://geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?op=gt&lang=&w=15wp&rid=11007&bdm=B&rpp1=&ordertable=
then you will see that there is information about which years' records have been indexed. Near the top, where the parish "Kalisz sw. Mikolaja" is selected from the drop-down menu, it indicates the birth years of 1841 to 1918, so you might think 1906 would be included. However, if you look farther down the page, you see a long bar which has certain blocks of years shaded in green, indicating that the only years available are 1841-1852 and then 1917-1918. Similarly, the marriages and the deaths have large blocks of years missing. This is likely the reason you did not find her or her parents.
Best of luck in your search,
Sophia

Thank you for pointing that out. I hadn't noticed the bar across the page that indicated which years are available. No wonder I have been reaching a road block with some names. I still have a lot to learn, but I am enjoying it!
Thank again,
Mary

Hi again Mary,

Two other comments for you, regarding Geneteka. First off, I always leave the page in Polish rather than use the option of seeing the page in English because sometimes that does odd things like try to translate surnames which is not helpful. You can toggle back and forth between the Polish and the English if you want to see what a column heading means, though.

Here's another interesting thing. I noticed that you had another question here on the forum about translation of a marriage record of Jan Kuczmarski and Franciszka Kwityng. If you decided to follow that up by doing a search on Geneteka for all Kwityng in the parish of Skepe, you might miss a few people. For example, using Kwityng as your search term and looking at the results for births, you would miss Antonina Kwityn (notice, there is no g on the end) who was birth #47 in 1859. She has the same parents as your Franciszka. There are a few Kwityn entries and even a Kwiayng which appears to me to be an indexing error. My point is, it can be useful to look for these anomalies. I do it by sorting the surnames alphabetically (I can give you a long-winded description of how to do that, if you are interested) and looking at the surnames surrounding Kwityn.

Best regards,
Sophia

Thank you Sophia!
The first thing I’ve been doing on Geneteka is changing it to English—I didn’t realize that it could change some search results. This is so good to know. I will keep it in Polish from now on.
I will follow up on the Kwityng anomalies. I’ve been sorting by name by clicking the little blue arrow next to ‘Nazwisko’, and then double checking to make sure it’s alphabetical in the results. Please let me know if there is a better way of sorting results.

One question: do you or anyone else know how to find the records for the parish of Betlewo in Mokow? (Marianna’s husband’s father, Jan Kuczmarski is from there). I found this reference to the parishes:
https://stephendanko.com/blog/7971
but I do not see anything resembling ‘Betlowo’.

Any and all tips are so appreciated! Thank you!
Mary
