This is a portion of the marriage record in 1873 for Jozef Zelasko from Wizajny parish, Suwalki.

I am trying to determine if his mother was still living at that time. I think the word before her name (Karolina Rydzewski) in the attachment might indicate that she is no longer living but am uncertain of that word.

I would appreciate any thoughts about that word from someone who is more familiar with cyrillic.

Thank-You! jajan

A son of Jakub and помершей Karolina.

помершей means: the late

Thank-You, Marcel! As always, your answer is very helpful. I hope that you had a good Easter. jajan.
