Need help with birth record
I'd appreciate any help with deciphering a birth record. I can manage the dates, but need help with the names. The record is # 183 here:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSM4-492N-J?i=999&cat=1107447
It looks like the surname of the daughter + parents is Łysy (Лысы), and the daughter's first name is "Michalina". But I'd like confirmation of that, along with the other names.
Thank you!

Hi Ray!
Yes, you are correct. The name of the daughter is Michalina (Михалина) and the names of the parents are Nikolai/Nicholai (Николая - genitive, compare to the more clearly written Nikolai found on image 1001, entry 187, father - not sure why there is the weird squiggle above the a, but I can't think of any other possible name). The mother is Krystina (Крыстины - genitive). See this link for spelling. The mother's maiden name looks like Roslik (Росликовъ -genitive).

Thanks again Ellie! This is the birth record of a great-aunt who I never even knew existed until a few days ago!
I appreciate your help with deciphering these records. I'm getting better at it but I get tripped up sometimes when a priest's handwriting is unfamiliar.
If only they had typewriters back then.

Oh, it would be wonderful if they had typewriters! Or even better pens would help haha.
