thank you!

Thank you! Would the father be an actual servant of the priest, in that he lives in the household? If so, does this suggest a certain socioeconomic standing, in the sense that a servant is in a different class than, say, a "daily hired worker" of the priest? I do not know enough about Poland during that time period.
