Jan NItka & Konstancja Wiciejewska (4th great aunt) Marry May 30, 1841

Most of the marriages in the records I look at are of young people around 20 or 21 years old. Here is a marriage where one of them was 22--and the other one was MUCH older. It also shows what families did related to the baptism of their children when one was Greek Catholic and the other was Roman Catholic. ***** One of the twins I have talked about -- Konstancja Wiciejewska (my 4th great aunt) was married on 30 May, 1841 -- 180 years ago.. Konstancja and her twin Wojciech were born in 1819 so she was 22 when she got married. Her father Maciej was deceased and she was living with her mother Mryanna nee Metalski in Tomaszów Lubelski. Her father was Greek Catholic and her mother was Roman Catholic and Konstancja was baptized as a Roman Catholic. Her father had worked as a potter. ***** The groom was Jan Nitka, a 46 year old widower. He likely had young children since he remarried the same year his wife died. There is a record of one daughter Helena but she was already deceased and I didn’t find any other children. They could have been born before Jan moved to Tomaszow Lubelski since he was born in Rusinow, Galicia, Austria, the son of farmers from there. He was a Greek Catholic carpenter living and working in Tomaszow Lubelski. ***** Jan and Konstancja had six children. The boys were baptized Greek Catholic and the girls were baptized Roman Catholic. ***** On April 13 I shared info about the village of Rybnica where Konstancja died.
