Maps:
The map below is a combination of maps found on the website for Map Archive of Wojskowy Instytut Geograficzny: http://english.mapywig.org/news.php. The map below is derived from the following areas: Inowrocław, Ciechocinek, Lipno, Mogilno, Radziejów, Włocławek, Słupca, Sompolno, Kłodawa, Konin, Koło, and Łęczyca. I used Image Composite Editor to merge the maps into a panorama of the area where my ancestors were located. The map is not 100% aligned, but it does give a general idea of where villages were located.
Map Key:
- The villages with “stars” are the locations that Wojciech and Justina lived.
- The villages with “solid diamonds” are the locations that the couple’s children lived.
More information for the villages within this article can be found on the Slownik Geograficzny Translations page on this website: http://www.apagr.com/slownik-geograficzny-translations/
Assumptions/Theories:
- Wojciech and Justina may have had children prior to 1778 in the Chlewiska Parish or a surrounding parish.
- The first Skonieczny marriage within the Chlewiska Parish for the years available was in 1756 for Katarzyna Skonieczna. Wojciech may have been born in this parish. Katarzyna and Wojciech may have been siblings.
- Justina Wojdyła may have been born in the Sędzin Parish.
- Justina was the sister of Andrzej and Wawrzyniec Wojdyła.
- Wojciech and Justina may have married in a nearby parish. Sędzin is a strong possibility.
- Maciej Skonieczny married Anna Lewandowska within a neighboring parish of Chlewiska, prior to 1819.
- Tekla Skonieczna married Jan Wawrzeniak within a neighboring parish of Chlewiska, prior to 1822.
- Jan Skonieczny shows up in Skonieczny family baptismal records as a young adult.
