English translation:(their personal circumstances) derive solely from their statements,
Explanation:
...and I have attached a photocopy of the said documents to the original hereof.

What the notary is saying is that he can identify them from their ID documents but for other particulars, address etc., he has relied on their personal statements and not on any other evidence.

This is very standard in notary documents.
