Here the Debno record (2 pages!) - just the bottom entry.

It says that the date was 4 Nov 1838. Michael was a farmer from Lubrza and Margaritha lived in Pieczkow. Please note that she was indeed 14 - at least this is what the priest wrote. The names of witnesses are difficult to read, something like Valentinus Pindacz? and Adalbert Lisewski.
