Translated from the Russian, the record states:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00e2\u201e\u2013 144\u00c2\u00a0Ciepielewo<br \/>\nThis happened in Szelk\u00f3w on the twenty-third day of October \/ fourth day of November in the year one-thousand eight-hundred ninety-two at five o&#8217;clock in the afternoon. Teofil Niedzia\u0142kowski appeared, thirty-two years old, a farmer residing in Ciepielewo, in the presence of Jan Niedzia\u0142kowski, twenty-six years old, and Kazimierz Strzy\u017c, forty years old, farmers from Ciepielewo, and he presented to us a male child stating that it was born in Ciepielewo at noon on the twenty-eighth day of October of this same year, of his lawful wife Ksawera n\u00e9e Zygmuntowicz, twenty-two years of age. At Holy Baptism performed by us, this child was given the name Konstanty and his Godparents were Jan and Helena Niedzia\u0142kowski. This document was read to the witnesses and father who are illiterate and was signed by us.<br \/>\n[signed] Reverend K. [Zajaczkowski?], Keeper of Vital Records<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I had looked for my grandfather&#8217;s birth and baptismal record for a long time. Part of the difficulty in finding it is that I didn&#8217;t know where in the Congress Kingdom of Poland he was born. Various records state that he was either born in Pomaski or was from\u00c2\u00a0Pomaski. Other records state that he was either born in or was from Warsaw. As it turns out, although he did reside in Pomaski most of his early life before he came to the United States, and his grandmother (Julianna Gutowska) was born in Warsaw, he hiself was born in Ciepielewo and baptized in Szelk\u00f3w. The only way I discovered this was that his birth and baptismal record was indexed on\u00c2\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/geneteka.genealodzy.pl\/\">Geneteka<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Copyright \u00a9 2016 by Stephen J.
