No 33  Wiązowna

This happened in the village of Wiązowna on the twelfth day of Jul in the year one-thousand eight-hundred forty-eight at the hour of four in the afternoon .  There appeared Teofil Gudłowski, thirty-two years of age, and Adam Rąb, thirty-three years of age, both peasant farmers residing here in Wiązowna, and they stated that yesterday at the hour of twelve noon, Ludwik Gutowski died, a peasant residing here in Wiązowna, three years of age, son of the married couple Wojciech and Anna Gutowski of Wiązowna .  After visual confirmation of the death of Ludwik Gutowski, this document was read aloud to the declarants, and because they do not know how to write, was signed by Us .  [signed] The Reverend Antoni Zembrzewski, Pastor of Wiązowna

Ludwik Gutowski was my 2nd great grand uncle and brother of Julianna Gutowska, my 2nd great grandmother .  One of the declarants in this record was Teofil Gudłowski .  His surname could be Gutowski, but it appears to have a dł rather than a tk in the name .  Even though Ludwik was only three years old at the time of his death, the record lists an occupation for him:  peasant.
