In 19th century the social status, being part of nobility or being a prominent member of the society was always reflected in the metrical books. In the photo attached there is a record from parish of Rymanow in Przemysl Diocese which shows the of marriage of Franciscus Xaverius Stanislaus Urbanski and Sophia Genovefa Skórska in 1842. As you can see their names are preceded by the titles “Generosus ac Magnificus Dominus” and “Generosa ac Magnifica Domina” which is rather difficult to translate and means more or less “Great Lord/Lady of noble birth” Then after the name there is information about towns he owned “Heres bonorum Odrzechowa, Darów, Haczów “
