On January 17 (1830), Ewa Wisniewska (3x great grandmother) marries for the first time
Ewa Wisniewska (my 3x great grandmother on the Kaszucki side) married for the first time today, January 17 in 1830. Wincenty Rachanski, age 22 was a shoemaker journeyman and both of his parents were deceased. His family had been shoemakers. Ewa was also 22 years old. Her father was a gravedigger (he had been a potter) and her mother was deceased. The witnesses were Grzeogorz Jaworowski, 67 and Jacenty Janiszewski, 33, who were shoemakers from Tomaszow Lubelski (I don’t know their relationship to the family.) The bride lived with her father and he was present at the wedding and gave his permission.
Wincenty died the next year. Ewa remarried five or six years later July 30 1837 to Jozef Kurkiewicz (my 3x great grandfather.) They had six children. Their oldest -- Apolonia -- is my 2x great grandmother. Their youngest --Ignatious/Ignacy -- is Mike Liszewski’s 2nd great grandfather.
Amazingly, she lived to age 91. When she died in 1889, her son Ignacy at age 38 was one of the declarants. The other one was Walenty Lisikiewicz, 40. Her daughter Apolonia/Paulina would have been 51 years old.
