Translation-Church Record-Cyrillic-Tovtre Romania, Ukrainie-1842
Hi, I have unlocked a brick wall in my family research and was fortunate to find records in the Greek Orthodox Metrical records for Tovtry, Ukraine (then Romania). I have put together a pdf of the birth and death record. I have made some attempts to translate records using several aids including the ones referred to me but I need some help. The record headings are in German and Romanian and I think the script is Romanian in Cyrillic. I would sure appreciate some help with the translations.

I was attempting to edit a typo and my whole post disappeared.
@Cheryl KitzanI am not connected with Family Search but the usual advice will be to join a Group, see Tab left hand side of the webpage
Perhaps https://community.familysearch.org/en/group/13-austro-hungarian-empire
@N Tychonievich, 2 May date of original post, over 4 months, seems a long time without any FS response
Mark McLemore, why are there not instructions on the Community Home page that researchers should join a Group for translation help, as this seems to be the standard moderator response now. Cheryl perhaps would have been able to read that instruction over 4 months ago.

You can post in this particular 'Group' in either, English; and/or, Romanian.
You can use the likes of 'Google' "Translate".
You 'Google' "Translate", to translate, my 'Comments', in posts, other than English.
I include BOTH, the English version; and, the 'Translated' version, of my 'Comments' in post
Good Luck.
I hope this may also help, somewhat.

If you didn't get help with the translation, try some of the Facebook research groups. Romanian Genealogy Society Research Group on Facebook has a few volunteers who can read some of the Cyrillic scripts.
