I'll look into this later tonight. I know Russian, and can help with the birth record. There is a 12-13 day difference between the Julian and Gregorian calendars.

Family members who are left do not always know the age of the deceased. Especially when older family members die.




When Marianna married in 1868, she was 19 years old. This means that she was born in abt. 1849. This also confirms her birth record. She was born on 26.06.1849.
When Jozef got married, he was 26 years old. This gives birth year abt. 1842. He was born on 23.02.1842. So it all fits perfectly.

Ok, thank you ! So that means it is a mistake on the grave, she died at 82 and not 84. Thanks for you help, I have much more informations about my family now, it is amazing !

Yes, correct. This tombstone came almost 100 years after they were born. They did not remember the exact date of birth.

……and from your post

And for what you said about the correct date being on wedding document, you gave me a few messages above their wedding act from 1868, do you see it there ? (this one : https://metryki.genealodzy.pl/index.php?op=pg&id=261&se=&sy=1868a&kt=2&plik=031-032.jpg&x=1652&y=0&zoom=0.99 )

In wedding records at that time, most often about the age and date of birth of those who got married, not the exact date.

The most important thing from this document (not a full translation):

No.32 Wieluń

It happened in the town of Wieluń, on November 3rd/15th, 1868, at 4 p.m.
A religious marriage was concluded on this day, between:
Józef Chrzan / Chrzanowski, a bachelor, 26 years old, living in Wieluń, a son of the late spouses Chrzanowski: Tomasz and Gertruda, who was born in the village of Parcice.
and
Marianna Tomaszczyk, a miss, 19 years old, who was born and living in the town Wieluń, a daughter of the late Mateusz and living Agnieszka (currently living in Wieluń).

Thank you again a lot for your help, I wouldn't have imagined to find all those informations !

And for the uniforms/medals, do you know if there is a museum in Poland about the 1863 insurrection, so I can ask them ? I searched on the web but didn't found anything except a museum of the army in Warszawa, maybe I'll start there
