Aktas 225 & 226 are 1920 birth records from Zaręby Kościelne, Łomza, Poland for my great-grandfather’s second-cousins. I would be grateful if someone could translate them 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 in Akta 225: Rywka ZAREMBER;
- the child in Akta 226: Gitla ZAREMBER;
- their father: Abram ZAREMBER, son of Juśk & Zelda;
- their mother: Chawa Ita SZERENIEC.

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

225:
Birth registered in Zaręby Kościelne on 24 September 1920 by father, Abram ZAREMBER aged 55, residing in Zawisty-Dzikie.

Witnesses to the registration: Wolf DZIEŹY, village head/representative (sołtys) aged 52 and Icek BERGMAN aged 54, home owner, residing in Zaręby Kościelne.

Female child born in Zawisty-Dzikie on 18 July 1909 to his spouse Chawa-Ita née SZERENCÓW aged 57.

The child was named Rywka.

Late registration due to the father's negligence.

226:
Birth registered in Zaręby Kościelne on 24 September 1920 by father, Abram ZAREMBER aged 55, residing in Zawisty-Dzikie.

Witnesses to the registration: Wolf DZIEŹY, village head/representative (sołtys) aged 52 and Icek BERGMAN aged 54, home owner, residing in Zaręby Kościelne.

Female child born in Zaręby Kościelne on 30 June 1902 to his spouse Chawa-Ita née SZERENCÓW aged 57.

The child was named Gitla.

Late registration due to the father's negligence.

Note:
Although this record says the birth took place in Zaręby Kościelne, this might be a clerical error, as on the left underneath the Akta # it says Zawisty-Dzikie (as does the other record), and this is typically how the place where the 'event' took place was recorded.

No mention of Abram's parents, and also not of his occupation in either record.
