Sue, you did a wonderful work of translating from Russian. Please note that the Russian records are with dates using Julian or Russian Calendar and Gregorian Calendar. Gregorian Calendar was and is used in Poland and in European countries. You may read about them in Wikipedia. Gregorian Calendar dates are 12 days after dates in Julian Calendar till about 1900 year, then the difference is 13 days.

Eppich Maria,
Maria, Thank you for reviewing and correcting my translation. My head says that Gregorian dates are 12 days later, but I get very confused when I try to translate and don't know whether I should add on the days. I guess you are saying to just add them on. I have three more people to work on translating from Cyrillic. Two are births, and the last one is birth and death.
I am so thankful for your help,
Sue Luchs

Sue, Gregorian date is usually the second one given, it should be the later one. Glad to assist you.

Got it! ( I think). Thanks for keeping me oriented. Hopefully my next attempt will be more accurately Gregorian.
