A dispensation from two of the banns was obtained from the authority of the church on the twenty-sixth day of January of the current year. The newlyweds stated that they had made no prenuptial agreement between them. This religious rite was performed by the Reverend Edmund Biesżkowski, pastor of the parish of Szelków. After reading this document aloud, it was signed by us, the newlyweds, and the witness Edward Nowakowski. The witness Jan Niedziałkowski is illiterate.

Józef Niedziałkowski was the brother of my maternal grandfather, Kostanty Niedziałkowski. This marriage was the first for Józef Niedziałkowski, but it was the second marriage for Józefa Pomaska. her first husband, Edmund Kołakowski, died in the Hospital of the Infant Jesus in Warsaw the previous year. The record states that both of the newlyweds were permanent residents of the Smrock Gmina. Both of the newlyweds were born in the Szwelice parish, Józef in Pomaski, and Józefa in Sikuty (called Pomaski-Sikuty in the Słownik Geograficzny Królestwa Polskiego).
This record agrees with the marginal notes of marriages in the copy of the Birth and Baptismal Record of Józef Niedziałkowski – 1897.
