It seems that the Dymeks did not have future genealogists in mind when two men named Franciszek Dymek, both with wives whose surname was Szymowska, both named their daughters born in the year 1858 with the same name – Justyna.

[signed] The Reverend Franciszek Sakowicz, Pastor of the parish of Mały Płock

I have translated the name of the priest who baptized Tadeusz as the Reverend Firmian the Capuchin .  At first I thought Kapucyn was a surname, but because two priests in the same parish (Firmian and Innocenty) both had the apparent surname Kapucyn, I now believe that the two priests were members of the Capuchin Order and had assumed the names of saints when they took their vows.

[error?] crossed out F[ranciszek] S[akowicz]

The priest wrote the mother’s maiden name, crossed it out, and then wrote her full name .  He noted the correction in the left margin of this record and signed the correction with his initials (FS) .  This is the first record I found that referred to a village with Dymki in the name .  The village of Piasutno Dymki was listed as Stanislaw Dymek’s place of birth on his World War II Draft Registration Card .  I don’t know if or how this Stanislaw Dymek is related to the Dymek’s in my family but perhaps I should try to find out who his parents were now that I’m reasonably certain I’m researching the records for his birth place.
