This wedding was preceded by three readings of the banns on the tenth \/ twenty-second, seventeenth \/ twenty-ninth, and twenty-fourth of October \/ fifth of November of this same year in the parish of P\u0142oniawy. No impediment to the marriage arose. The newlyweds stated that they had made no prenuptial agreement. This document was read aloud to the declarants and witnesses who do not know how to write and was signed by Us. Melchior Chodkowski was my 3rd cousin 5X removed.<\/p>\n The record seems to state that the witnesses, Jan and Ignacy Chodkowski, were Melchior’s brothers-in-law. They were, in fact, Melchior’s nephews, the sons of Melchior’s older brother Miko\u0142aj.<\/p>\n This marriage was the second marriage for both spouses. Moreover, Melchior and Agnieszka married at quite an advanced age, seventy-sex and seventy years of age, respectively.<\/p>\n Copyright \u00a9 2009 by Stephen J.
