29. Borze-marcisze<\/p>\n

It happened in the village of Gzy on the eighth\/twentieth day of November in the year one-thousand eight-hundred forty-seven at the hour of eleven before noon. There appeared Antoni Chotkowski, age forty-two, and Wojciech Smolenski age forty-six, both farmers residing in Borze-marcisze, and stating that two days ago at the hour of six in the evening, Antonina B\u00f3rska died, an unmarried woman, residing with her sister, fifty-seven years of age, daughter of the deceased married couple Stefan and Marianna B\u00f3rski. After visual evidence of the death of Antonina B\u00f3rska, this document was read aloud to the declarants and by Us alone signed because the declarants do not know how to write.
\nReverend Piotr B\u0105czkowski,\u00a0Administrator of\u00c2\u00a0Gzy<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This record spells the family surname as B\u00f3rski, rather than Borski or Burski as I’ve seen in many other records.<\/p>\n

The image above is a digital photograph of the actual\u00c2\u00a0death record for Antonina Burska in the Book of Deaths for the parish of Gzy 1826-1851. This book of\u00c2\u00a0death records\u00c2\u00a0is not available on microfilm.<\/p>\n
