Salomea (Wiciejewska) Kaszucka Died April 24 1877
Salomea (Wiciejewska) Kaszucka (my 3x great grandfather) died April 24 1877 at age 73. Her husband Andrzej Kaszucki (my 3x great grandfather) died 16 years earlier. The declarants went the next day to report the death. They were Józef, 48 (her son) and Walenty Lisikiewicz, both farmers from Tomaszów. They were both illiterate so the document was read aloud to them and signed by the priest.
Salomea’s parents were Maciej Wiciejewska and Marianna nee Metalski. Salomea was the first born of nine children. Her family was Roman Catholic and worked as potters. When she was 19 she married Andrzej Kaszucki, a furrier in Tomaszow of the Greek Uniate faith. Together they had eight children including my 2x great grandfather Stefan Jozef. It appears that the girls were raised Roman Catholic and the boys were raised Greek Catholic.
