15. [Mosaki] Rukle and Głodki. This happened in the church-owned village of Krasne on the second day of September in the year one-thousand eight-hundred thirty-two at the hour of six in the afternoon. We make it known in the presence of witnesses Walenty Załewski, owner of part [of the village] and residing in Głodki, twenty-five years of age, and Aleksander Milewski, owner of a part [of the village] and residing in Milewo Gawronki, thirty-eight years of age, maternal uncle of Teresa Chodkowska  who is named below, on this day a religious marriage was contracted between the well-born Antoni Perzanowski, a young man, twenty-three years of age, owner of part [of the village] and born in Głodki of the married couple the deceased Michał Perzanowski and Tekla née Głodowska, and the unmarried young woman Teresa Chodkowska, daughter of the married couple Jan Chodkowski and Marianna née Obidzińska, eighteen years of age, born in [Mosaki] Rukle and residing there with her parents. This wedding was preceded by three readings of the banns on the fifteenth, twenty-second, and twenty-ninth day of February in the same year in the parishes of Krasne and Szwelice, as well as the oral consent of the parents of the newlyweds who were present for the marriage record and of the guardians on the side of the bridegroom. No impediments to the marriage arose. The newlyweds stated that they had made a premarital contact on the twenty-fifth day of the month of August of the present year before Antoni Niski, Regent of the registry of the Przasnysz Powiat in Przasnysz. This document was read aloud to the declarants and witnesses and was signed by Us and Maciej Chrzanowski, guardian, the other people named in the document do not know how to write.
[signed] The Reverend Józef Kosmowski, Vicar of the Parish of Krasne
          [signed] Maciej Chrzanowski, Guardian

Teresa Chodkowska was my 2nd cousin, 4X removed.

Of particular interest is the fact that Antoni Perzanowski and Teresa Chodkowska had made a prenuptual agreement on 25 August 1832. Most Polish marriage records report that “The newlyweds stated that they had made no prenuptual agreement between them”.

Also of interest is the fact that Antoni Perzanowski, whose father was deceased, had a guardian by the name of  Maciej Chrzanowski.
