From Geneteka.

Akta 65 is my great-great-great-grandmother’s sister’s 1824 birth record from 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: Zelda WAYNTROB/WAJNTROB;
- her father: Abraham/Abram 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.

Hello,
Here is all the relevant information. I’m having trouble reading the surname of one of the witnesses, but he was a local official and therefore probably not a relative. The spellings are somewhat irregular, including the spelling of the father’s name.

Number 65 — Zaręby Kościelne

Registration of Birth: 1 November 1824, 1 p.m. [13:00]

Birth: 31 October 1824, 2 a.m. [2:00], in the family’s home, house No. 24

Father (Declarant): Abraam WAYNTROB, 34 years old, day-laborer, residing in Zaręby Kościelne

Mother (Wife of Declarant): Mirka née Idzko, 32 years old

Child: Zelda

Sex: Female

Witnesses: Ankiel [???], 70 years old; and Peysak WANGORT, 50 years old; synagogue sextons [in Zaręby Kościelne]
