Tomasz Dominik Died 15 April 1831
Tomasz Dominik (my 4x great grandfather) died 15 April 1831 at 8:00 in the morning. He was 78 years old. He was born in Majdan Gorno and lived there his whole life. He left behind his widowed wife Regina nee Wojcik.
His younger brother Jozef, 70 and Jan Raszkiewicz, 53 were also peasant farmers in Majdan Gorno. They reported his death but didn’t know who his parents were. (And I haven’t figured it out yet.)
The cause of death is not given but there was a cholera outbreak in Russia from 1829 to 1831 that was brought to Poland from soldiers by 1831. Influenza from 1830 to 1831 was also in Europe at the time. *****
