Also on Jan. 17 (1824) Michal Raczkiewicz and Anna Dominik Marry

Michal Raczkiewicz and Anna Dominik (my 3x great grandparents on the Raczkiewicz side) marry today, January 17 in 1824 at 12:00 p.m. Michal was a 19 year old bachelor living with his parents, Jan Raczkiewicz and Apolonia nee Gołębiowska (4x greats). They lived in the village of Majdan Górny and worked as peasants. Anna, was age 18 and also never before married. She lived with her parents Tomasz Dominik and Regina/Reina Woycik/Wójcik. They also were peasants in the same village. The banns were announced previously on January 4th and January 11. The witnesses were Marcin Kukiełka, 40, Józef Pyc, 35, Sobek Jaruzal, 35, Piotr Sobek, 40, all peasants residing in the village of Maydan Górny. I recognize the Jaruzal (or Jeruzal) last name and will soon have more information. I know several Raczkiewicz’s married several Jaruzal’s so this man might be an uncle or a cousin. When I wrote this on January 1, I thought they went on to have seven children. I am currently having their children’s records translated--one per day--and now know they had 11 children. Their firstborn Jan/John is my 2x great grandfather. This record (Act 4) was translated for me on May 14, 2020 by a volunteer from Genealogical Translations. Which is kind of amazing to me how much has been found out in the last year. https://szukajwarchiwach.pl/35/1937/0/1/45/skan/full/gwkU32MOfUJvSUuXXtGtjA
