The Piechorowski Family: 1745 to the Descendents of Jan and Joseph.

 

The earliest documented Piechorowski is “Lucas” born about 1745 in the Parish of Sw. Bartlomieja the Apostle, the village of Schepanowo, deanery of Barcin. We do not know his wife’s name, but believe that he is the father of Jan Piechorowski born 1779 in the village of Slaboszewko, Szczepanowo Parish, deanery of Barcin. Jan will marry the Justine Kurzawa Walzak on August 31, 1808, at the Parish of Sw. Marcina, village of Gora, deanery of Znin.

On November 4, 1814 a son Andrew will be born to this union in the village of Jadoniki. Andrew will marry Michaela Selerzynska on October 24, 1843, in the village church at Brzyskorzystewko,  Sw. Katrazyna of Alexandria, deanery Znin. Their surviving son’s, Jan and Joseph will father the “Piechorowski Family in America”.
