-==Latin Records==
-These reading aids, prepared for Galicia, which was part of Austria and eventually Poland, will give you extensive help in reading Latin records.  These forms were mandated by Austria, where the Catholic church was the state religion. They are typical of  Catholic church records. The vocabulary will also be seen in earlier Catholic records that do no use a columnar form.
