Thank you so much for the translation. Can you tell me why the date of birth reads 24May/5 June ? I noticed several birth records have two dates like this. Is it true that Polish tradition does not have middle names for their children?

Since June 1868 part of Poland under Russia rule used Julian and Gregorian Calendar.

We have middle names but no body pay attention. Also if Pastor likes he recommended.
