Translated from the Russian, the record states:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Pomaski\u00c2\u00a0\u00e2\u201e\u2013 121<br \/>\nThis happened in the village of Szwelice on the eleventh \/ twenty-third day of December in the year one-thousand eight-hundred ninety-four at one o&#8217;clock in the afternoon. Teofil Niedzia\u0142kowski appeared in person, a laborer residing in Pomaski, thirty-three years old, in the presence of Wladys\u0142aw Krajewski, a blacksmith, thirty-three years old, and Piotr Ostrawski, a laborer, forty years old, and he presented to us a male child stating that it was born in Pomaski on the ninth \/ twenty-first of this same month and year, of his lawful wife Ksawera n\u00e9e Zygmuntowicz, twenty-three years old. At Holy Baptism performed on this date by the Reverend Wladys\u0142aw Senni\u00d1\u0081ki, Assistant Pastor, this child was given the name Tomasz and his Godparents were: Wojciech Niedzia\u0142kowski and Karolina Niedzia\u0142kowska. This document was read to the declarant and illiterate witnesses and wa signed by us alone.<br \/>\nU d Administrator of the Szwelice Parish, Assistant Pastor, and Keeper of Vital Records<br \/>\n[signed] Reverend Senni\u00d1\u0081ki<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Since my grandfather was born in Ciepielewo in 1892 and his brother Tomasz was born in Pomaski in 1894, it is clear that the family moved between 1892 and 1894. The distance between the two towns is not great &#8211; it&#8217;s about 7.8 km (4.8 miles) by road. Today, it takes less than 10 minutes to drive between the two places. I don&#8217;t know why the family moved to Pomaski.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Copyright \u00a9 2016 by Stephen J.
