Click on the link for a PDF copy of the Death Record for Micha\u0142 Markiewicz – 1890<\/a> .\u00a0 Translated from the Russian, the record reads:<\/p>\n 111 .\u00a0 Braciejowice – Markiewicz Micha\u0142<\/p>\n This happened in the village of Piotrawin on the 8th \/ 20th day of August 1890 at eleven o’clock in the morning .\u00a0 Tomasz Markiewicz, age 31, the\u00c2\u00a0 father of the child, and Franciszek Turski, age 52, house owners in the village of Braciejowice, appeared and stated that on the 6th \/ 18th day of August of this year at 6 o’clock in the evening Micha\u0142 Markiewicz died in Braciejowice, having been born and lived there for two weeks, son of the aforementioned married couple Tomasz and Franciszka Pi\u0105tkowa – after eyewitness testimony on the death of Micha\u0142 Markiewicz.<\/p>\n This document was read to the declarants who are illiterate, and signed by us.<\/p>\n Rev. C. Trembi\u0144ski, pastor of the Piotrawin Parish – Keeper of the documents of the civil state<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The death record does, indeed, record the death of the infant recently born to Tomasz Markiewicz and Franciszka Pi\u0105tkowa.<\/p>\n As with other documents from the Kingdom of Poland (the Russian Partition of Poland), the dates are recorded\u00c2\u00a0according to\u00c2\u00a0both the Julian Calendar and the Gregorian Calendar .\u00a0 In 1890, when this document was written, the two calendars differed by 12 days .\u00a0 Since we use the Gregorian Calendar (the more accurate calendar), the correct date of death is the later date: August 18, 1890.<\/p>\n Franciszek Turski appears in many records for the Markiewicz family, including the Births and Baptisms of Jan, Micha\u0142, and Stanis\u0142aw Markiewicz .\u00a0 It’s possible that Franciszek Turski was a neighbor or relative of the Markiewicz family.<\/p>\n One final note about the surname Markiewicz .\u00a0 In many of these records, the name appears to be written as Markowicz, rather than Markiewicz .\u00a0 At this point, it’s not clear if this was just an issue with transliteration of the name into Russian, or if the correct spelling is actually Markowicz.<\/p>\n Copyright \u00a9 2006 by Stephen J.
