C. Trembi\u0144ski, pastor of the Piotrawin Parish &#8211; Keeper of the documents of the civil state<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p align=\"left\">Jan was born on February 27, 1889 .\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Jan&#8217;s death record correctly shows that he was three years old when he died on March 24, 1892.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Comparing this record with the Death Record of Micha\u0142 Markiewicz who died on August 18, 1890, some additional information about the birth date of Tomasz Markiewicz can be deduced .\u00a0 Tomasz was 31 years old on August 20, 1890 and 32 years old on March 26, 1892 .\u00a0 Since Tomasz only recorded one birthday between these two dates, Tomasz must have been born between March 1859 and August 1859.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Unfortunately, the ages recorded in these Church Records are not always accurate .\u00a0 A case in point is the fact that Franciszek Turski was 52 years old in Michae\u0142&#8217;s Death Record 1890, but only 51 years old in Jan&#8217;s Death Record in 1892.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" align=\"left\">Copyright \u00a9 2006 by Stephen J.
