On about 01 Jan 1791, Szczepan Niedziałkowski, son of Andrzej Niedziałkowski and Kunegunda Milewska, was born in Klonowo, ziemia ciechanowska, województwo mazowieckie, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. He was baptized in the parish church in Pałuki, ziemia ciechanowska, województwo mazowieckie, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth on 01 Jan 1791.
The Birth and Baptismal Record of Szczepan Niedziałkowski – 1791
SOURCE: Parafia pw. św. Gotarda (Pałuki, ziemia ciechanowska, województwo mazowieckie, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth). Baptisatorum ab Anno 1775 ad 1781, Księga V, Szczepan Niedziałkowski baptism (1791) folio 34 recto; FHL microfilm 1496613.
Click on the image above to enlarge it. Click on the link for a PDF copy of the Birth and Baptismal Record of Szczepan Niedziałkowski – 1791. Translated from the Latin the record reads:
Klonowo in the same year [1791] on the 1st of Jan[uary] [Felix Primus Lenderblat Bernard?] baptized a son
by the name of Szczepan of the nobles Andrzej and Kunegunda née Milewski Niedziałkowski, a legally married couple. The Godparents were the Nobles Andrzej and Wiktoria Niedzialkowski, [one word?] Pałuki.
As with most other Polish records from this time period, this record does not specifically state all the details of the baptism. The reader must refer to the top of the page for the year (1791).
As with other records from this time period, the title and name of the priest is difficult to decipher. Also, the phrase after the names of the Godparents is difficult to understand, and is apparently a descriptor of the Godparents.
The Godparents are described as “Generosi” meaning “Noble”, but I don’t know what the difference is between those listed as “Generosi” and “Nobili”.
