You're close in your translation...Hey Insider,<br /><br />You're close in your translation, I give you a C+. <br /><br />Most Spanish parish records are in Spanish - rarely in Latin. In Cataluña you'll find some records in Catalan, but only for that region.<br /><br />Another very helpful site in helping with reading old parish records is: http://script.byu.edu The site is in several different languages and provides several tips in reading Spanish, Italian, French, and German parish registers - it's one of the best sites out there for reading helps.<br /><br />Saludos,<br /><br />Lynn - from the Hispanic Genealogy blogLynn Turner, AGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14491729340562410176noreply@blogger.com
