Antoni Krawczyk Married Barbara Probola

In my culture, a year of mourning is typical before a husband remarries after his wife dies. It may have been different in Poland in the past, especially if there were young children involved. ***** Anthony Krawczyk (my 4x great grandfather) wed Barbara Probola on May 22, 1824. Barbara was 32 years old and the daughter of Sebastyan Probola and Anna nee Bartnim. They were once peasant farmers but were deceased. Barbara was living with her brother-in-law in Łaszczówka. ***** Antoni was a 42 year old peasant farmer residing in Łaszczówka. His parents were once peasant farmers in the same village but were deceased. This was Antoni’s second marriage. His wife Dorota (Kozrya) Krawczyk (my 4x great grandmother) died 22 March 1824. She was 45 years old. The death was reported by Antoni, Krawczyk, 42, her husband and Jozef Litwin, 60, a neighbor in Laszczowka where they lived. Her death information was in the record for her husband's remarriage two months later to Barbara Probola. It is possible that there were young children in his home even though his oldest daughter Katarzyna (my 3x great grandmother) was married November 1823, four months before her mother died. That might explain why he remarried so quickly. Image: By Rronaldo79 - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=47595282
