Reading Ukrainian Birth Records

MHendersona2

Hi, all!

What resources are there, please, for translating the headings for Ukrainian birth records? I would like to look through this record set:

I'm starting to learn to read the Cyrillic alphabet, but I'm not quite there yet :-) If I can figure out the headings that will give me a good start for these records. Also, are these records in Russian or Ukrainian, please?

Thank you so much!

Hi,

these seem to be Jewish birth records. Header is Female/Male/Who performed the circumcision/Christian/Jewish/Birth place/State? of the father (citizen, peasant, noble etc), fathers and mothers name/Who was born and their name

Underlined in blue is the father's last name (on this page at least) above the record the first letter of their last name repeats, I guess for easier searching, though the original scribe's writing is much clearer.
