Translation Request - Birth Record - Simon Bieda

MattieH

Please help with decipering Simon's mother's surname, the witnesses and anything else that is missing. Also, I have been wondering how many families usually lived in one household of these farming communities? The church records seem indicate at least 2? What does the word Jeraph? (I think this is how it is spelled) after a name mean, such as in this record:

1794 Francisca (Franciszka) [Jeraph?:] Bieda, 16th September 1794, Hs no. 140, Mathias Lesiewicz aka Bieda, and Francisca (Franciszka) born Michalska. Witnesses: Adalbertus (Wojciech) Materna, Hedvigus (Jadwiga) Lesiewicz aka, farmers.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

Please note that it is Franciscus Bieda, a boy, not Francisca Bieda, a girl.

Franciscus Jeraph = This Franciscus Jeraph and the next birth record is also for Franciscus Jeraph, then Franciscus Borgias. It was a surname or another name of Saint Franciscus, occasionally the recorder would add it, as if to differentiate it from others, but it was never used afterwards. At home this boy would be called Franciszek.

Birth Record, Lubenia Roman Catholic Parish, dated 22nd September 1786, Simon (Szymon in Polish) Bieda, house no. 41, a legitimate son of Valentinus (Walenty in Polish) Bieda and Catharina (Katarzyna in Polish) born of Pater (father) Grzebyk. Godparents: Simon Borzcza (?? Maybe later this surname will occur clearer) and Anna Bednarkowiczna (daughter of Bednarek)

Thank you very much for explaining the name gender and use of the names Franciscus Jeraph, and the Simon Bieda surname translation. I appreciate it. Mattie
