Antoni Raszkiewicz married Katarzyna Szczepaniuk

Antoni Raszkiewicz married Katarzyna Szczepaniuk--yesterday, 23 November, 1856 at 1pm in the afternoon. This Antoni has the same name as my grandfather but was born 60 years earlier. He is my 1rst cousin 4x removed. There isn’t too much in this record that is unusual but since it was translated for me today and the event happened yesterday--164 years ago--I wanted to share it with you. Note that his last name has an “s” instead of a “c”--Raszkiewicz or Raczkiewicz. That was something I discovered--there are lots of my relatives with this spelling of their name. Another note: the bride is a maid in Majdan Górny. Most of the women did not work but you can see her parents were deceased so she probably had to work. A lot of the maids in the city Tomaszow seemed to work for merchants such as shoemakers. Working in a village, it is possible she was a maid in the house of the owner of the land that her family worked as peasant farmers. Married in Tomaszów Lubelski on 23rd November 1856 1o'clock in the afternoon.
