Akta 74 is my great-great-grandfather’s sister’s husband’s 1850 birth record from Rutki, 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: Chaim GRZYBOWICZ;
- his father: Icek Wolfowicz GRZYBOWICZ;
- his mother: Tauba.

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

Here is all the relevant information. This is a delayed registration—the text contains a note explaining that the registry in Rutki was not established back when the birth occurred. I would also guess that the parents’ listed ages are as of the time of registration (1850), not the actual birth (1843).

No. 74 — Rutki

Registration of Birth: Rutki, 25 (13) July 1850, 10 a.m. [10:00]

Birth: Rutki, 1 November (20 October) 1843, 5 p.m. [17:00]

Child: Chaim

Sex: Male

Father (Declarant): Ićk Wolfowicz GRZYBOWICZ, day-laborer, 50 years old, residing in Rutki

Mother (Wife of Declarant): Touba Lejbowna, 48 years old
