From JRI-Poland.

Akta 5 is my great-great-great-grandmother’s sister’s 1827 birth record from Andrzejewo or Zaręby Kościelne, Łomża, Poland. I would like it translated in full (or at least everything that isn’t the standard wording of a birth record).

Names that I would expect to see in the text are:

- the child’s name: Leja WAYNTROB/WAJNTROB;
- her father: Abraham/Abram/Abraam WAYNTROB/WAJNTROB, son of Herszko;
- her mother: Mirka, daughter of Idzko and Zelda.

Thanks so much! Hopefully the handwriting isn’t too hard to read.
