Results of reviewing the Public Record Books
in the State Archives in: Lublin, Siedlce and Zamosc
Parishes of the Siedlce
(Podlasie) Diocese
(Former and current places of
residence of the Wajszczuk Family)
Trzebieszow Parish -
The earliest information (dating back
to the beginning of the 18th century - generations -III and -II)
was obtained by Barbara Miszta from the review of the Parish
records on site, in the Trzebieszow Parish.
Archives in Lublin - (years
reviewed: 1810 - 1870, missing: 1844 and 1869). Review of the
records from this particular parish provided us with a major
portion of the information which alowed connecting the
previously detached branches of the Tree. One Jedrzej
(Andrzej) Wajszczuk was discovered in the generation (-II) - he
could have been the oldest son of Stanislaw (-III generation)
from Trzebieszow - the sofar discovered "initiator"
of the Podlasie branch of the Family. Subsequent search in the
Ulan Parish, (see below) allowed discovery of the descendants of
Andrzej, who lived in the village of Rzymki and
who, in turn gave origin to the Family branches living until
present in Zakowola, (Kakolewnica parish),
Okniny (Zbuczyn parish) and (most probably) in
Domaszewnica and then in a town of
Łuków.
Descendants of
the next son of Stanislaw - Tomasz (-II) eventually also came to
Łuków (and then migrated to the cities: Torun, Warsaw and
Lublin, as well as to the nearby village of Misie).
We new already
earlier that the next son of Stanislaw - Jozef (-II)
lived in the not too distant Zarzec
Łukowski.
Now we were able to identify his descendants, who lived in
Brzozowica. However, we were unable to trace
the family in the next generations.
We still do not know anything about the next son
of Stanislaw - Michal Stanislaw (-II).
(Similarily, we
do not know anything about the Family members, who lived at one
time in Trzebieszow IV).
Archives in Siedlce - (years
reviewed: 1871 - 1905, missing: year 1873).
Review provided rather extensive additional information
regarding the families of Franciszek Wajszczuk (0516) from
Trzebieszow III and Maciej
Wajszczuk (0032) from Trzebieszow I.
(Only 3 marriage certificates were
missing: Jan Wajszczuk (0022) - his second marriage to Anna
Lukasiewicz (born in Krzymoszyce, wedding took place in the
Miedzyrzec parish); Adam Wajszczuk (0027) - also his second
marriage with Teofila Sowinska (born in ?, wedding in ?) and
Franciszek Wajszczuk (0718) to Stanislawa Adamowicz (born in ?,
wedding in ?) - the ceremonies most probably took place in the
parishes of the brides.
Łuków Parish -
Archives in
Lublin - (years reviewed: 1811 - 1860). The name Wajszczuk
was not found. But we encountered a name Weszczuk,
a name which was carried by a member of the "Piechota
Wybraniecka", who originated from Trzebieszow towards the end of
the 16th century (see -
http://www.wajszczuk.v.pl/english/informacje_historyczne.htm).
Archives in
Siedlce - (years reviewed: 1870 - 1904, missing from both
Archives were years 1861 - 1869). A record was found of a
marriage in 1894 of Jan Wajszczuk (0683) born in Zyty, Ulan
parish to Jozefa Charytoniuk born in Domaszewnica and
subsequently, the records of birth of their two children who
were born in Domaszewnica: Rozalia - in 1896 and Stanislaw in
1898. This information suggests that Jan (0683) was the one, who
initiated the Domaszewnica line of the Family
Ulan Parish -
Archives in
Lublin - (years reviewed: 1812 - 1903). New information from
this parish allowed to connect and expand the Family branches
who at one time resided in Rzymki,
Dminin and Okniny and later on (and at
present) in Aleksandrow, Żakowola
and Kąkolewnica (Kąkolewnica parish).
Their descendants moved to the city of
Łodż and to the
regions of Silesia
and of Mazuria.
To
this branch belongs also a family, who at present lives in
Domaszewnica (see below the findings of a
review of records in the Siedlce Archives*).
In the
Ulan parish, we also encountered several entries of persons,
who undoubtedly belonged to the Wajszczuk Family, but were
erroneously recorded under the name Waszczuk.
* In the
Archives in Siedlce, while reviewing the books of the
Łuków parish (see above), we found some
entries which confirm the supposition that they indeed
belong to this branch of the Family.
Wojcieszków Parish -
Archives in
Lublin - (years reviewed: 1810 - 1867). The name Wajszczuk
was not found.
Archives in Siedlce - (years reviewed:
1875 - 1892, missing from both Archives were years 1868 - 1874).
The name Wajszczuk was not found.
Kąkolewnica Parish –
Archives in
Lublin - (years reviewed: 1810 - 1903). Some information was
found which suggested family ties between Jozef from
Zarzec (see above - Trzebieszow Parish) and the
Wajszczuk Family members who lived later in Olszewnica.
A
person named Szymon WAWRZUK
was identified, who lived in
Kąkolewnica early in the 19th century. There was no subsequent
information regarding his family. The possibility cannot be
ruled out that this was another son of Stanislaw with misspelled
last name.
Archives in
Siedlce - has no records from this parish.
Międzyrzec Podlaski Parish -
Archiwum
w Lublinie
- (lata 1810-1904).
Na nazwisko Wajszczuk natrafiono
tylko jeden raz (Sprawozdanie #25) - pod data 7.II.1884 był
zarejestrowany ślub Jana Wajszczuka, lat 40, urodzonego w
Trzebieszowie, s. Franciszka i Zuzanny z Okulinskich z Anna
Lukasiewicz, lat 24, c. Wawrzyńca i Wiktorii, urodzona w
Krzymoszycach, świadek - Adam Wajszczuk. (Nadal nie
znaleźliśmy połączenia miedzy gałęzią rodziny zamieszkała w
Krzymoszycach i głównym pniem Drzewa)!
(Frequent
appearance of the name WASZCZUK was noted
-
see (1);
see (2))
Archives in Siedlce - has no records from
this parish.
Radzyń Podlaski Parish -
Archives in
Lublin - (years reviewed: 1810 - 1904). The name Wajszczuk
was found only once (Report #27) - on February 4, 1892, a
marriage of Andrzej Wajszczuk (0013), age 20, from Zakowola, son
of Fabian and Konstancja nee Mazur, with Zofia Kuc, born in
Siedlanow.

Wajszczuk was found only once (Report #27) - on February 4,
1892, a marriage of Andrzej Wajszczuk (0013), age 20, from
Zakowola, son of Fabian and Konstancja nee Mazur, with Zofia

records from this parish.
Zbuczyn Parish -
Archiwum w Siedlcach - (lata
1810-1905). Nie znaleziono nazwiska Wajszczuk.
ecords
starting from the year 1906 can be found in the Zbuczyn Parish
and in the Public Register Office in Zbuczyn, where they are
computerized after 1952.
Akta od 1906 roku znajdują się w kancelarii
parafialnej kościoła w Zbuczynie i w USC w Zbuczynie, gdzie dane
są skomputeryzowane od 1952 roku.
Important
informaton about a previously unknown to us Wajszczuk family
(Florian 0556), who lived at the beginning of the XX century in
Okniny and belonged to the Parish of Zbuczyn, was kindly
provided to us by Mr. Krzysztof Sprzaczak from Minsk Mazowiecki.
He found this information while reviewing the records in the
office of the Zbuczyn Parish. He also found a record (and
forwarded to us a copy of the certificate) of marriage, to
second wife, of Aleksander Wajszczuk (0659) from Krzymoszyce.
Note:
The Archive in Lublin does
not have any Public Register records from the Parishes in:
Gąsiory, Zbuczyn, Radomyśl, Krzewica i Zofibór.
The Archive in Siedlce does
not have any Public Register records from the Parishes in: Ulan,
Kąkolewnica, Międzyrzec Podlaski i Radzyn Podlaski.
In summary,
based on the above Archive search, we were able to connect to
the main trunk of the Tree, the majority of branches of the
Podlasie branch of the Family.
As of its
termination (August 11, 2006), still not connected remain the
following families: a/ living in Łazow at the turn of the
19th and 20th centuries and 2/ living at present in
Krzymoszyce.
Zamosc Branch
Parishes of the former Diocese of Zamość
Nielisz Parish -
Archives
in Lublin - (years reviewed: 1768 - 1875, years missing:
1814 - 1817). Towards the end of the 18th century and at the
beginning of the 19th century, belonged here temporarily a
Wajszczuk family, who originally came from
"Wysokie-Sitaniec". They lived at that time in Wolka
Nieliska (see).
Subsequently, around the middle of the 19th century, they
probably settled in Sulow and in its
vicinity. At that time (as well as at present) they belonged
(and still belong) to the Szczebrzeszyn Parish.
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1876 - 1897). The name Wajszczuk was not
found.
Nieledew Parish -
Archives in Lublin - (years reviewed:
1831 - 1874, a greek-catholic parish, years
missing (death records): 1831 - 1862).
A few entries of the name Wayszczuk or
similar (see)
were found around
the middle of the 19th century. (The subsequent review
will also include the Trzeszczany Parish, since
it has been discovered that later on the roman-catholics
transferred to the Trzeszczany
Parish after the Nieledew Parish was converted by the
Russian occupying authorities into a russian-orthodox
parish - see below).Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1875 - 1894, at that time an orthodox
parish). The name Wajszczuk was not found. Names Waszczuk
and Wajczuk were found in Nieledew and names Waszczuk,
Wajczuk and Wojczuk were encountered in the village of
Zadebce. Archives in Lublin -
repeated review - (years reviewed: 1810 -1874,
no books were missing this time).
It was decided to repeat the review in the Lublin
Archives, since the name Wajszczuk was not found during
the continuation of review of the subsequent books from
this parish in the Archives in Zamosc, nor was it found
in the Trzeszczany parish (years reviewed: 1810-1867),
where the Roman-Catholics from this area
belonged. This time no name Wajszczuk (Wayszczuk)
was found - it is assumed that the name, which was
encountered during the first review and interpreted to
be Pawel Wayszczuk - was misread. The correct reading (spelling)
of the recorded name should be "Pawel WOJCZUK". The
birth certificate of this Pawel Wojczuk coud not be
found - this fact also suggests that he arrived to
Nieledew from a different location (parish).
The following names were encountered: Walczuk - in
Podhorce and Obrowiec, Waszczuk - in Zadebce, Woyczuk
and Wojczuk - in Nieledew and Chyzowice and Woyciuk and
Wojciuk - in Zadebce.
Wielącza Parish -
Archives in Lublin
- (years reviewed: 1722 - 1875, years missing: 1813 - 1815
and 1817 - 1827). Records for the village of Wysokie
are only available from the year 1784. At that time, there
were already Wajszczuks living in Wysokie (see).
The name continues appearing in this parish until about the
middle of the 19th century - later on the same family
appears in the records of the Sitaniec parish.
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1876 - 1905). Only one pertinent entry
was found under the date of January 9, 1877 - a marriage
record of Maciej Wajszczuk (0267) and Katarzyna Lewczukowa.
Sitaniec Parish -
Archives in
Lublin - (years reviewed: 1777 -
1861, years missing: 1786 - 1809). Villages of Sitaniec and
Wysokie ("Family Nests") belong at present to this parish.
As mentioned above, some Wajszczuks from "Sitaniec-Wysokie" were
registered here already towards the end of the 18th century
(see).
Descendants of one of the members of this
family line subsequently settled in Sulow.
A Waszczuk family also belonged at the same time to the same
parish (see).
It appeared that they maintaned a rather close relationship
with the known Wajszczuk family - perhaps they were related but
carried a misspelled name? Starting from about the 3rd
decade of the 19th century, the Wajszczuks living in
Wysokie were registered (belonged) to the Sitaniec
Parish - as well as members of the "new" Sitaniec
line (see) initiated
by Walenty (0451), who was born in Wysokie.
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1872 - 1905,
missing from both Archives were years 1862 - 1871). Multiple
entries were found concerning the families of Maciej (0267)
and Jan (0299) as well as of the families related to them -
Hass, Chrzan, Parasiewicz, Bdziuch and Łój.
Szczebrzeszyn Parish -
Archives
in Lublin
-
(years reviewed:
1650 - 1874, year missing: 1827). "Similar names" appear
very early in these records (see),
but the recordings of the names and persons, which could be
accepted with complete certainty as members of the
Wajszczuk Family, appear much later. These are the
Wajszczuks from Wolka Nieliska
and later from Sulow and vicinity. They
appear in this parish in the first half of the 19th century
(see) -
some of their descendants still belong there.
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1875 - 1905). Considerable amount of
information was found, which allowed to expand the family
branch of Jakob (1236) Wajszczuk from Sulow.
Some misspelings of the last name were also found among the
members of this family, among others a variant WALSZCZUK -
this was mentioned to us during our visit in Sulow (see).
Stary Zamość Parish -
Archives
in Lublin
-
(years
reviewed: 1602 - 1875, many volumes/years were missing).
Only one entry with a name Wajszczuk was found - on January
15, 1865, a wedding of Mikolaj Wajszczuk (1323) from
Wysokie, member of the Sitaniec Parish with Anna
Zderkiewiczowna from Stary Zamosc. Besides, several "similar
names" and their variants were noted (see).
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1876 - 1905). The name Wajszczuk was not
found. "Similar names" were seen - Wawszczak in
Wirkowice and Wawszczuk in Krasne. Other names also
appearing in this parish were: Wojtas, Wawryczak, Waszak,
Wawryszko.
Grabowiec Parish -
Archives
in Lublin - (years reviewed: 1810
- 1875, years missing: 1812 - 1814). The name Wajszczuk was
not found. "Similar names" were seen - (see).
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1876 - 1905). The name Wajszczuk was not
found. The name Waszczuk was present.
Hrubieszow Parish -
Archives
in Lublin - (years reviewed: 1762
- 1808, records of the Bishop's Curia). The name Wajszczuk
was not found. "Similar names" were encoutered (see).
Archives in Zamość
- no such records exist there.
Horyszow Polski Parish -
Archives
in Lublin - (years reviewed: 1810
- 1865, a greek-catholic parish, missing (death records):
year 1859). The name Wajszczuk was not found. "Similar names"
were encountered (see).
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1879 - 1904, at that time - an orthodox
parish; missing from
both Archives were years 1866 - 1878).
The name Wajszczuk was not found. A name Walczuk was
encountered.
Trzeszczany Parish -
Archives
in Lublin
-
(years reviewed:
1810 - 1867, missing - year 1845). The name Wajszczuk was
not found. "Similar names" were encountered (see).
Our previous finding of a name Wayszczuk(?) in Nieledew (a
greek-catholic parish) around the middle of the 19th century
(see above under the Nieledew Parish) remains to be further
investigated.
Archives in Zamość
- (years reviewed: 1875 - 1904, missing from both Archives
were years 1868 - 1874). The name
Wajszczuk was not found.
