Hello Maria and thank you again for your help with a translation!
While I had hoped that the text might provide information that would help me find his birth record, I do believe that your translation is accurate. Just one day ago, I found the Latin phrase "miles gregarius" defined as "private soldier, mercenary" in the online Parish Register Latinw_language by C. Russell Jensen and your interpretation looks to be consistent with what I found there. While I was hopeful that the word that followed "de" might perhaps be the name of a village or his father's given name in Latin, your translation seems to be on the mark because I now see that the Polish word for garrison is "garnizon" and the handwriting on the record sure looks like "Garnizon." Best regards, David Sideck
