Antoni Raszkiewicz born May 4, 1842
Antoni Raszkiewicz (my 2x great grandfather) was born May 4 1842. It was spelled with an “s” instead of a “c.”
This record was translated for me (5/23/2020) when I was first learning how to do this. I thanked the translator for helping me to just find the parents’ name because when I was using the entire translation aide, it was overwhelming since I don’t read Polish. (I can now pick out enough words in Polish but not Russian.) I told her I was making progress by inches and it was true. Thanks to the help of lots of people I am slowly learning the family story.
Antoni’s parents Michal and Anna (mee Dominik) were married in 1824. They had 11 children -- Antoni was the 8th one. They were all born in Sabaudia. Antoni married Marianna Grabek in 1862 and they had two children. Antoni died young at age 26 in 1868. Marianna remarried Tomasz Kedra and they also had two children.
Act 117/1842.
It happened in Tomaszów on May 5, 1842 at 4 PM.
Appeared Michał Raszkiewicz, peasant from Majdan Górny, 39 years old in the presence of Marcin Raszkiewicz (21) and Michał Sidora (25), both peasants from Majdan Górny.
He declared the birth of a male child born in Majdan Górny on May 4 1842 at 10PM of his wife Anna born Dominik (38).
The child was baptised the same day and given the name Antoni.
