Hello,
This is an unusually detailed record—here is all the relevant information. Since the two witnesses are Brayndla’s husband and son, who are also listed as two of her surviving relatives, I am including their information only once.

Also, the occupation of Brayndla’s husband (Izrael) is a title reflecting complex, archaic Polish laws allowing landowners to control and profit from the consumption of alcohol of peasants. Look up “propination laws” for more context.
