23. This happened in the village of Krasne on the twenty-first day of April / third day of May in the year one-thousand eight-hundred forty-six at the hour of two in the afternoon. There appeared Józef Milewski, owner of a part [of the village] and residing in the village of Mosaki Rukle, forty-six years of age, in the presence of Maciej Niedziałkowski, sixty years of age, together with Gabriel Obidziński, sixty-five years of age, both owners of a part [of the village] and residing in the village of Mosaki Rukle, and he showed Us a child of the female sex born in the village of Mosaki Rukle on the eighteenth / thirtieth day of April in the same year at the hour of two in the afternoon of his wife Teresa née Chodkowska, thirty years of age. To this child at Holy Baptism performed on this day was given the name Leokadia, and her Godparents were Michał Chodkowski and Klara Chodkowska. This document was read aloud to the declarants and witnesses who do not know how to write.
         [signed] The Reverend Józef Bońkowski, Pastor of Krasne
As seen in several other birth and baptismal records, although Józef Milewski was able to sign his name (as documented in the birth and baptismal record of his son Felix born in 1835, and in his own marriage record from 1835), the priest wrote that none of the declarants or witnesses knew how to write.
Leokadia Milewska was my 3rd cousin 3X removed.
