I should start with an apology for sending so many records at once. I'm having difficulty locating the death record of August Bilinski in Poznan so was hoping there may be some details in these records of his children's marriages that may assist. From the records I sent the other week I know he was alive when his son was born in 1879, and that he had died in Fort VI by the time of his daughters marriage in 1892. He appears to have been married possibly 3 times (I can only locate 2 at the moment although his first 2 wives have Magdalena as first names {maybe the surnames are not right?]).
If you can translate the attached records please. I'll need to send over 3 requests.
Cheers

Hi Ted
You try to learn about the Bilinski family, hence I’ll focus on their parts in the records first. Among the witnesses on the second pages is no Bilinski mentioned. Please do let me know if you need additional details.
The information provided in the records about August and his wives are confusing indeed. I think the main problem is sometimes you find a note that a person is deceased and sometimes not - although he or she is. Maybe resulting from misunderstandings. Looking at all the records my working assumption would be as follows:
According to the Poznan project August Bilinski and Magdalena Adamiak married in 1849. These are the parents of Johann, born in 1851. When Thomas was born in 1858 the parents were August Bilinski and Magdalena Szafranska. Hence it seems as if Magdalena Adamiak died in the 1850ies and August remarried. Magdalena Szafranska also gave birth to Anton in 1861, to Josepha in 1865 and to Constantia in 1868. Magdalena Szafranska died in Bogucice near Kalizc before her son Thomas married in July 1883. Maybe as early as around 1870. August remarried again in 1871: According to the Poznan project the widowed August Bilinski and the widowed Franciszka Paprzycka, born Ławińska, married in 1871. Their son Franz was born in 1879. August died in Solacz county Posen ( :Fort VI: ) before February 1892.
Best regards,
Michael

Anna Elisabetha: daughter of Johann Schmidt, a Catholic [Pontificii], [was baptized] on July 5. Godmother was Anna Elisabetha, Sebastian Jacobs’ wife from here.

Thanks very much Michael, that helps a lot.
I am related to Franciszka Paprzycka through her first marriage and partially through the second marriage. As you can see from the locations that Augustyn moved around a lot, Franciszka Paprzycka and Augustyn also had a daughter Jadwiga Biliński in Trzebin (Trzebinia?) village in Grand Duchy of Posen on 27 Jul 1875. My Grandfather married Jadwiga in 1899 (she was living in Bogucice) and when she died in 1904 he then married Jadwiga's step niece (my Grandmother) in 1905.
From the history you have provided with the translations I now know that Augustyn died after Oct 1886 and before Feb 1892, so that narrows the search period. The bit that throws me is that he died in Solacz County, but Fort VI is in Winiary. I have searched through the Poznan civil records under "Urząd Stanu Cywilnego Poznań - obwód miejski" which I thought were for Winiary but could not locate a record. I suppose I'll have to write to the Poznan Archives and ask if they can assist.
Thanks again for all your help.
Cheers
Ted

In Küchen on October 23, Anna Elisabeth, daughter of Johann Henrich xxtings [Unsure about the family name, but I would guess you know it already.] was born and baptized on October 27. Godmother was Anna Elisabeth Siebertin [The suffix –in indicates a female person, hence read Siebert.].

Hi Lucas,
In 1720 the Landgraf of Hessel-Cassel built a penitentiary in his residence in Cassel and stipulated with this ordinance that all those who wished to marry must make a contribution to its financing before the marriage. The amount of the contribution is differentiated according to 7 classes and increases from 2 Albus in the first class for ordinary citizens, craftsmen, farmers up to 1 Reichsthaler, 10 Albus and 8 Heller in the seventh class for the nobility. The eighth class is for the military. Whoever wanted to marry had to present a receipt for the contribution paid.
Sometimes you will find a reference to the fee paid in the church book. A Reichsthaler had 32 Albuses of 12 Hellers each. It's hard to say what that means in today's money. Hope that helps.
Best regards,
Michael

Post subject: Verification of a date of birth
Hi Michael,
Can you please verify the date of birth for me? An online tree has the date of birth as June 28, 1871, however, it looks like June 22, 1872 to me. (I could be wrong since I'm still new to figuring out dates in German.)
Thank you for your help.

Hi Trish,
"am zweiundzwanzigsten Juni des Jahres tausend acht hundert einundsiebzig"
Please compare the first letters of the day’s and the year’s ones (here in bold). They look different. Hence the date is June 22, 1871.
Best regards,
Michael
