I'm looking for the birth or christening record for L1QQ-F9K so that I can settle the question once
I don't read anything other than English, and don't know where to look to find his birth or christening record. Due to the Russian Revolution, I don't even know if it would still exist.

Tammy, do you know what religion Edgar belonged to when he lived there? FamilySearch does not have records from the Vinnytsia region of Ukraine, but records can be found in the Vinnitsia oblast (Винницкая область) archive -- see http://metrics.tilda.ws/ukraine#rec5597077. An inventory (in Ukrainian) for this archive can be found here: http://davio.gov.ua/pub/book/davio-mk-2012.pdf. The name of the town you are looking for is shown as Вапнярка in the inventory. The archive appears to have Roman Catholic church records for the area.

As far as I'm aware, he was raised Russian Orthodox. Thanks for the links. Unfortunately, it's not in English. ☹

Yes, there are also Russian Orthodox (православный) church records for the province held at that archive as well.

I sent the link to my maternal line cousin. It's his dad. Fortunately, he's able to read Russian/Ukrainian, and will be able to translate it for me.

I thought he could read Russian/Ukrainian, but he can't. His long time live-in girlfriend was born in the Ukraine, so she can translate it for him.
