My 3rd Great Grandmother, Karolina Niedziałkowska, died on 05 Oct 1886 at midnight in Mosaki Godacze in the Congress Kingdom of Poland. She was presumably buried on 06 Oct 1886 in the parish cemetery in Krasne.

The record includes two notes in the left margin identifying her husband . These two notes state:

This document is one of the records I found at the Family History Library during the recent UPGS Conference.
This death record recorded where my 3rd Great Grandmother was born and her age at the time of her death. I can now look for her baptismal record in the Karniewo parish in approximately 1806. The Family History Library has microfilmed the records of the Karniewo parish from 1627-1905. The parish itself still holds the original books for baptisms and marriages after 1825 and deaths after 1891.
