Hi Dave
I have found so much information on the pgsa.org website - thanks again for all the advice you provide.

I have another birth record, which I am struggling to read. It is the first entry. The best I can do is as follows:

Jacobus Mucha, Parochus

Skrobek Wiatrak Mielenuis / Milencin [?]
Anno Dni 1818 Die 12 Novembris ___ Joannes Kia__anke Parochus et Archpnuesbiter Bralin___ ne Thomarn, filium legitime ____ Thomie Oszerzdia moleioris ___ 38 an et Catharince Gronzanka ___ 28 ann ____

G'day Dave

Some more translations from the Rychnow parish when you have time. Now that I know that a different surname was used prior to about 1820 I have now found more siblings which I think may now complete the family - still have one to research from Tursko parish which maybe the first born.

Also I have the birth record from Zbyszyce parish for Juliana Szablowski the Rychnow Curates sister who married into the family - I can read most of it just need assistance with the "Conditio".

Cheers
Ted

Could someone help me understand what the Masculi Legitimi column means in this death record? Does it refer to the number of siblings of the deceased or does it refer to the number of children they had? Or is it something else entirely?

Hi tubson,

Those columns contain information which is completely different from what you suggest. They deal with the status of the deceased in terms of legitimacy broken down into the categories of male and female. Sometimes the priest simply checked the appropriate column but sometimes (as is the case here) the priest entered a number which was a running tally of the number of deaths in the parish for the year in the pertinent category. If you look at the entire page the numbers in the columns for legitimate males and legitimate females increase with each entry for the particular category.

Here follows the translation of the column headings from a template I created to eliminate repetitive typing when I translate such records.

German Partition Death Template 1

Col. 1: Numerus = Number (in order for the year):
Col. 2a: Annus et Mensis = Year and Month:
Col. 2b: Dies Obitus: Day of Death
Col. 3: In quo loco = In which place (place of death):
Col. 4: Nomen et Cognomen = First and Surname the deceased):
Col. 5: Aetas = Age
Col. 5a: Annus = Year(s):
Col. 5b: Mensis = Month(s):
Col. 5c: Dies = Day(s):
Col. 6: Conditio = Condition/Status/Occupation (of the deceased):
Col. 7: Conditio et Professio Patris = Condition/Status and Profession of the Father:
Col. 8: Nomen et Cognomen = Given and Surname
Col. 8a: Patris = of the Father:
Col. 8b: Matris = of the Mother:
Col. 9: Masculi = Males
Col. 9a: Legitimi = Legitimate:
Col. 9b: Illegitimi = Illegitimate:
Col. 10: Feminae = Females
Col. 10a: Legitimae = Legitimate:
Col. 10b: Illegitimae = Illegitimate:
Col. 11: Morbus = Disease:
Col. 12 Unde putet curato personam defunctam esse eandem sicut ipse relatum = Whence/from whom/how was it clear to the curate that the deceased person is the same as is reported:

I hope that you find this helpful.

Hi blue,

The likely reason that you had difficulty reading the record is that many of the words in the entry are abbreviated and/or truncated. The standard signs that a word has been truncated are the semicircle above a word and the squiggle at the end of a word. The ending -ensis attached to a vernacular place name transforms the vernacular place name into a Latin 3rd Declension adjective. In the transcription I added the missing letters in parenthesis.

Attached are a picture of a typical windmill (wiatrak) from Wielkopolskie and an example of a Dutch style windmill found in Poland. Wielkopolskie had a considerable population of immigrants from the Low Countries who sought refuge in Poland during the religious wars in their native land. Those immigrants brought with them the technology to reclaim wetlands as well as a breed of Dutch cattle which came to be raised extensively in Wielkopolskie.

The transcription and the translation follow.

Dave

Jacobus Mucha, Parochus = Jakub Mucha, pastor

Skrobek Wiatrak* Mielencin = Skrobek, the windmill* of Mielęcin

Anno D(omi)ni 1818 Die 12 Novembris Adm(odum) R(everen)d(us) D(omi)nus** Joannes Kassanke Parochus et Archipresbiter Bralinensis baptisavit infantem n(omin)e Thomam, filium legitime natum die 10 c(urrentis) m(ensis) hora 5 mane Lab(oriosorum)*** Parentum Thomae Oszeręda(?) molitoris aetat(is) 38 an(norum) et Catharincae Gronczanka**** aetatis 28 ann(orum) Conj(ugum) leg(itimorum). Patrini (fuerunt) Susanna Gronczanka**** et Franciscus Rogosk(?)

Translation of body of entry: In the year of Our Lord 1818 on the 12th day of November the Very Reverend Pan** Jan Kassanke, pastor and Archpriest of Bralin, baptized an infant by the name of Tomasz, the son legitimately born on the 10th day of the current month at the hour of 5 in the morning of the industrious*** parents, the legitimately married spouses Tomasz Oszeręda(?), a miller, 38 years of age, and Katarzyna Gronczanka****, 28 years of age. The sponsors (were) Zuzanna Gronczanka**** and Franciszek Rogosk(?).

Notes: *wiatrak/windmill, a Polish word. During the 19th Century windmills were used as sources power. Here the windmill powered mill where Tomasz plied his trade as a miller.
**Dominus/Pan: In the early 19th Century almost all priests were szlachta/nobles. Dominus can be translated into English as “Sir” or “Lord” but the Polish version of the title is “Pan”.
***Laboriosus/Industrious: an adjective used to designate an individual as a peasant.
****The suffix -anka was used for unmarried females (and hence for a mother’s maiden name. It is likely that the “cz” was added for euphonic reasons. The surname of the father of the ladies likely was Gron or Groń.

Reply with quote

Thanks Dave. I will look out for the semi circles and squiggles. Thanks also for the pictures of the windmills and I had no idea that so many Dutch people had moved to Poland. It is all very interesting.

My next record is a part German and part Latin record. I have only transcribed the Latin part as follows:

die XVIII Aprila perimo ortevo

Capellanus Kokott copulavid in filia M. Butschkau juvenum Friederikum Schar, inquilinus ex Miga Butschau, filium Friederici Schar, roloni, ex Trzcinica,
et virginem Susannem Sarnorka, filiam Mathaei Sarnoska, inquilini ex My. Butschkau die XVIII Aprilis
Testes: Thomas Wolny juvenis ex My Balorka; Carolus Wieizores [ditto]
Act: 3
Sponsi: 24
Sponsae: 26

This record is unusual to me, as I think the filia and filium are round the wrong way; usually it refers to Gross or Klein Butschkau (for this family); and there is another German marriage record for this couple, which possibly records a different father (or two?) for Susanna. I will also attach that record on the German part of the forum.

Hi blue,

Immigrants from the Low Countries were only one of several groups who immigrated to Poland during the era of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth which ended with the Third Partition of Poland in 1795. One reason immigrants from other European countries was the long standing guarantee of religious freedom which was a hallmark of the Commonwealth. Poland, as a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society, had a long tradition of religious freedom. The right to worship freely was a basic right given to all inhabitants of the Commonwealth throughout the 15th and early 16th century. Complete freedom of religion was officially recognized in Poland in 1573 during the Warsaw Confederation and was made a constitutional right in the Henrician Articles which were adopted prior to the coronation of the first elected monarch, Henry of Valois. Poland kept religious freedom laws during an era when religious persecution was an everyday occurrence in the rest of Europe. It is difficult to think of any European country from which immigrants did not come to the Commonwealth to take advantage of the freedoms offered by the Commonwealth of the Two Nations (Rzeczpostpolita Obojga Narodów).

Back to the current record...There are a few elements of the record which distinguish it from the more familiar marriage entries. The priest is referred to as Capellanus and the phrase “in filia” can be confusing. The explanation is found in “Notes”.

Corrections to the transcription follow.

Dave


Transcription:

die XVIII Aprilis /decimo octavo/*

Capellanus Kokot copulavit in filia** M(agno) Butschkau juvenum Friederikum*** Schar, inquilinus ex Magno Butschkau, filium Friederici Schar, coloni, ex Trzcinica,
et virginem Susannam Sarnorska, filiam Mathaei Sarnoske, inquilini ex Mag(no). Butschkau die XVIII Aprilis
Testes: Thomas Wolny juvenis ex Mag(no) Butsch(au)****; Carolus Wieizorek [ditto]
Act: 3
Sponsi: 24
Sponsae: 26

Notes: */decimo octavo/: the date is first given in Roman Numerals (XVIII = 18th) and then in long hand in parentheses (decimo octavo = 18th).

**in filia: does not refer to a person but refers to a “filial” (daughter) church of the parish of Rychtal. Although the church in Wielki Buczek served the religious needs of the Catholics in that area it was not a separate and distinct parish and the priest who served that church was not the pastor but served under the pastor of Rychtal, and thus his title of capellanus/chaplain. The church in Wielki Buczek was under the patronage of St. John Nepomucene (św. Jana Nepomucyna) and did not become an independent parish until the year 2000. Here is a link to the history of the church which includes a picture of the church building where the wedding took place: https://zabytek.pl/en/obiekty/wielki-buczek-kosciol-pw-sw-jana-nepomucena

***Friederikum: should be spelled Friedericum. Although the letter k was part of the Latin alphabet during the Classical period it was replaced by the letter c in most words with the exception of Kalendae (the Kalends) and Karthago (Carthage).

****Another truncation.

Thanks Dave.

Now that I read the Latin record again - I can recognise that Magno Butschkau (Latin) = Gross Butschkau (German) = Wielki Buczek (Polish). I had seen a picture of the Wielki Buczek church from Wikimedia a few years ago, but your website link has much better photos and information. When I previously found the address of the church, it referred to it as being located in Rychtal, which never made sense to me, but now I understand.

I also had no idea about Poland being so open to different religions - I had always thought of it as being primarily Catholic. I really appreciate all the extra information you give to me.

Back to the marriage record, do you think is it unusual that Susanna's father is recorded as Mathaei Sarnoske and there is no mention that he may not be her biological father?

Two days earlier, Susanna and Fryderyk had gone to the civil registry, and Susanna had reported that Mathaeus Sarnowski was the second husband of her mother Franciska Kalfa. I guess it is also possible that Maciej was actually Susanna's biological father? I have put the civil marriage record on the German part of this forum and Michael has helped me to transcribe it. I would very much appreciate it if you can please have a look and let me know what you think.

Hi blue,

In my opinion all that can be determined with certainty about the relationship between Susanna Kalska & Matthew Sarnowski is that Matthew married Susanna’s mother (Frances Kalfa in 1862 and thus Susanna would have been under the care of her mother and her stepfather Matthew from the time she was about 13 years old until her marriage in 1875 when she was 26 years of age. Was Matthew Susanna’s biological father? Possible but highly unlikely. Here is what I see as the timeline based on data from the Poznań Project index: Matthew was born c. 1818; Frances was born c. 1825; Susanna was born c. 1849. Matthew married Marianna Gawlik in 1839 at age 21, was widowed and married Angela Supianek in 1847. He was widowed for a second time and married Frances Staschiok nėe Kalfa, a widow, in 1862. At the time Susanna was born Matthew most likely was still married to Angela. Frances Kalfa married John Staschiok in 1852. They had a son Ignatius who was born c. 1853 and married in 1879.

In Catholic B & B records the only way a father was entered if he and the mother of the child were not married would be form him to show up before the parish priest and declare that he was the father. Later adoption was a most unlikely option for those who were not nobles or owners of substantial property. It is my opinion that Matthew appeared in the Latin marriage record simply because he had cared for Susanna for about half of her life—in particular the years when she grew from a young teen to a woman of 26 years of age. I do not find it unusual for Matthew to be named as Susanna’s father at the time of her marriage with no reference to biological paternity, a relationship which I do not believe to have existed. If the chaplain at the filial church had been there less than 13 years—which was very likely since being at a filial church was probably viewed as a temporary situation until the priest became pastor of his own parish—he may very well have been operating under the assumption that Matthew & Frances and children were a family unit and that Matthew was Susanna’s actual father. Combined with knowing the names of the family members and not needing to ask Susanna the name of her father, the priest entered what he believed to be accurate.

BaSIA has links to scans of quite a few records for him Matthew
during his life prior to his marriage to Frances.

I hope this provides you with some food for thought.

Hi Ted,

The names of the children baptized in these records all refer to the saint after whom each child was named, which thus provides each child’s Name Day. The record for Róża/Rose does not name the saint but the saint after whom she was named was Rose of Lima whose feast day was 30 August.

Anyway the translations follow.

Dave

Tomasz:
4. Rychnów
In the same year on the 6th day of March the same who is above baptized an infant by the name of Tomasz z Akwino (Thomas Aquinas) born of the legitimately married industrious Kacper and Maryanna Maciaszek. The sponsors were Paweł Przybełek, a single young man and Katarzyna Przybełka, both from Rychnów.

Róża:
5. Rychnów
In the same year on the 30th day of August the same who is above baptized an infant by the name of Róża* born of the legitimately married Kacper and Maryanna Maciaszek. The sponsors were Wojciech Janeczak and Kunegunda/Kinga Tabernatiska, both from Rychnów.

Note: *Rosa (Róża/Rose) is not the same name as Rosalia (Rozalia/Rosalie). They are two distinct names.

Magdalena:
7. Rychnów

In the same year on the 30th day of May the same who is above baptized an infant by the name of Magdalena from Pazzi born of the legally married industrious Kacper and Maryanna Maciaszek. The sponsors were Wojciech Ktolak and Katarzyna, a maiden, both from Rychnów.

Hi Dave

Thanks again for all your help.

I have another marriage record, which I read as follows, and would appreciate your corrections:

Col. 1: Numerus ___ = Act number [for the year]: 26

Col. 2: Annus et Dies Copulationis = The Year, Month & Day of the Marriage: 18 November 1845

Col. 3: Nomen et Cognomen Copulantis = Given and Surname of the One Joining (them in Marriage): Ignatius
Schubert

Col. 4: Nomen, Cognomen, et conditio sponsi et utrum in facie Ecclesiae = The Given and Surnames, and status of the groom and whether married in the presence of the Congregation:

Hi blue,

The corrections/additions follow.

Back to your earlier observation about Poland being a predominately Catholic country...That is certainly true of Poland from the middle of the 20th Century on. However, Poland during the days of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (Rzeczpostpolita Obojga Narodów) was a far different place. The commonwealth was much larger in terms of territory and was much more diverse in terms of ethnic and religious makeup. Here are some stats which you may find interesting.

At its greatest extent in 1618 the Commonwealth encompassed approximately 1,000,000 square kilometers (c. 387,000 square miles) with a population of about 12 million people, which was composed roughly of 4.5 million Poles, 3.5 million Ukrainians, 1.5 million Belarusians, 0.75 million Lithuanians, 0.75 million Old Prussians 0.5 million Jews, and 0.5 million Livonians.

The religious affiliation breakdown of the Commonwealth was approximately 40% Catholic, 40% Orthodox, and 20% Jewish, Protestant and Muslim.

Attached are two maps which show the size of the Commonwealth at its greatest extent. The 3rd map shows where Roman Catholics, Greek Catholics (unici), Protestants, and Orthodox resided in the Commonwealth in 1750. Jews were scattered throughout the Commonwealth and Muslims resided mainly in the north east.

Col. 13: Annotatio = Notation: Blank

Notes: *currens is the present participle active of the verb curro, currere, cucurri, cursum, to run and the heading may be translated as “running tally” or as “sequential number”

** Kałusianka: Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish the letter ł from the letter t. When the letter is crossed high it is usually the letter ł and the letter t is crossed lower. Here the letter is ł. If you compare the letter in the surname with known letters (t) in words like Ignatius and Cristian and Catholicus it is clear the letter in the maiden name of her mother is crossed much higher. The suffix -ianka is an old feminine suffix which describes her as “the daughter of…” The surname of her father most likely was Kałuża.

***How is a liber different to a juvenis? There is no substantial difference—they are synonyms. Another synonym is adolescens.

****hortulanus/gardener: the term distinguished an individual in terms of the amount of land he had. A hortulanus/gardener had his own cottage and enough land for a garden but had no farm fields.

*****e is a form of the preposition ex. “e” was usually used before a word which begins with a consonant. “ex” was always used before a word which begins with a vowel. Why the scribe added a mark above the letter is a total mystery. I say scribe rather than priest because priests often hired someone to produce the copies of the registers which were to be submitted to the civil authorities as transcripts of the parish registers.

******Kempno/Kępno was the town where the local court was located. It is doubtful that the permission/license survives

G'day Dave

I was able to locate a couple of more birth records in Rychnow parish and a possible Death record. The death record is only a possibility due to the lack of info contained within, it is possible as it is just before Kacper remarries but the age is out. As I've found with most death records there is some creative license given to the ages of the deceased - on this page there are a couple of centenarians. Most probably Marianna died not long after the birth of Helena but the available death records are only from 1797 so not much chance of confirming.

Anyway, I've also included the Header row for the death records as I'm interested in the last column - does that indicate possibly widow (if so I can discount the record)?

If you can translate when time permits please.

Cheers
Ted
