Hello!

My ancestor Kazimierz (Casimir) CHMIELEWSKI, born about 1800-1810 "in Grodno", son of Jakub and Zofia ("Zoska"), emigrated to France after the 1831 uprising, married in Paris in 1841 and died there in 1868.

A Różana baptism (17 Oct. 1806, son of Jakub and Zuzanna; FamilySearch film 007765701, image 783) might be his. Does anyone know Różana / Jundziłowicze records, or lists of 1831 émigrés where he could appear (with his unit or home parish)?

Any story about the Chmielewski family there is welcome too. Thank you!

Henri de Marliave (Paris)

Hi Henri,
The parish of Różanka, near Grodno, is indexed on Geneteka, but I cannot find the Casimir you mentioned there. Furthermore, I am unable to locate the FamilySearch film 007765701 that you mentioned. Could you please check this and provide the names of other family members connected to Casimir?

Hi Henri and Barb,

Barb, here is the link from family search for Kazimierz. Kazimierz is on the right side of the page - 4th one down from the top.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSMW-Z9PY-J?cat=koha%3A688019&view=explore&lang=en&groupId=M9MN-HKC

Henri, do you need the death or marriage record for Kaziimierz? I see the actual record on ancestry.com. I can get it for you if you need it.

Regards,
Trish

Hi Barb and Henri,

Barb, I just posted the record from family search. Then I found this on Geneteka.

Hi Barb and Trish,

Thank you both so much for looking! Yes, that is the entry I meant: Różana parish, born 17.10.1806 at Jundziłowicze, son of Jakub and Zuzanna, godparents Teodor Leonczyk and Katarzyna Krokwicz (LVIA copy, FamilySearch image 782). Its weak point is the mother's name: in Paris his parents are given as Jakub and "Zoska" (Zofia), not Zuzanna.

Trish, which record do you see on Ancestry? His death (Paris, 18 March 1868) and his marriage (Paris, 23 December 1841) are known to me, but if you have found anything from the Polish side (other children of Jakub and Zuzanna, Jakub's death at Jundziłowicze in 1818, or an émigré list), I would be very grateful for the reference.

Other family: wife Pauline-Alexandrine Carchon; children Casimir (b. Paris 1842), Hélène (1850), Alexandre-Alphonse-Paul (1859). A possible relative: Eustachy Chmielewski, b. c. 1811 at Dereczyn, NCO in 1831, in Paris 1843-1857.

Warm regards from Paris,
Henri
