Translation Help for Birth Record
Hello! I think I have found the birth record for my ancestor, Kateřina Beníšková (GH14-6NW). I know her father's name is Martin Beníška (not entirely sure on the spelling of the last, but something like that). This birth record seems to confirm her father's name, but I cannot make out her mother's name. Other records I have found seem to indicate that her mother's name may be something like Marya Fiala, but I want to make sure that it is confirmed on the birth record. If someone could take a look at this, I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

I am sorry but the program changed on Jan 2nd and I did not receive notification of your comment. I would be happy to help you but wondered if you still need it translated. I can work on it today, if you still need help.

@Betseylee Browning No worries! And yes, I still need it translated, so if you wouldn't mind I would really appreciate it. Like I said in my initial post, I am most interested in what it says for her mother's name (along with any other names included in that section like grandparents). Thank you!

Is there an index for this record? The writing is terrible. They usually write the surnames better in indexes.

It's not super terrible but I would like other examples. Do you have any other sibling's records?

@Betseylee Browning Here is the link to the index for the birth records. My ancestor appears to be the 9th one listed on the right side of the index. However, they appeared to have spelled her first name with a C rather than a K.
Unfortunately, I do not know much about this family, so I'm not sure if these people are siblings or not, but I did find some other records in the same set that might be siblings. They have the same house number and I think I can make out the father as Martin Beníška (or Benisek?), but I am again having trouble with the mother's name on these records too. I'll list them below:
Anna (pg. 95, 3rd row):
(On index as well, right side, 16th down)
Maria (pg. 106, 1st row):
(Index, right side, 27th down)
Francisca? (Pg. 122, 1st row):
(Indext, right side, 36th down)
Thank you again for taking a look at this for me! I really appreciate it!

I will take a look at this today. That helps me out a lot. I am not Czech nor do I speak it but I will try my best.

The one for Francisca has a lot more info for the father in it. Have you already translated it?

Sending two maps while trying to figure out the towns. Have you been to mapy.cz yet? The second one is from the 19th century.

@Betseylee Browning No, I haven't had any of them translated. And yes, I have used mapy.cz.yet. It is really helpful!

I will look at this some more tomorrow. My eyes are cross-eyed right now. I cannot find the surname Kipty/Kypty.

@Betseylee Browning Yes, I see it now! (It's been a busy few days for me, so I was not able to look at it until now) Thank you so much for translating all of that! I know it was a tricky one, so I really appreciate it! And thank you for linking the part of the line that is already in FamilySearch! That is very helpful
