In today’s Treasure Chest Thursday, I offer an original piece of family history of major significance.\u00c2\u00a0 This is the beautiful Certificate of Marriage for my husband’s great-grandparents, Andrew Dominik and Malvina Golkowski.<\/p>\n

This document is very special.\u00c2\u00a0 Not only is it the original certificate for this important day, it is handwritten and signed by the Reverend Raymond Benedict Golkowski, Malvina’s older brother.\u00c2\u00a0 It is also the only official reference to Andrew’s original birth name in poland, J\u00c4\u2122drzej.<\/em><\/p>\n

Certificate of Marriage for Andrew and Malvina Dominik<\/p><\/div>\n

CERTIFICATE OF MARRIAGE
\nSTATE OF MINNESOTA
\nCounty of Morrison, SS
\nI hereby certify that on the 17th day of February in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred fourteen at Ramey in said County, I, the undersigned, a Roman Catholic Priest did join in the holy bonds of Matrimony, according to the laws of this State, Malvina Golkowski<\/strong> of the County of Morrison, State of Minnesota and Andrew\u00c2\u00a0J\u00c4\u2122drzej<\/strong> <\/strong>Dominik<\/strong> of the County of Morrison, State of Minnesota in the presence of Lon Goldaczi, Katy Schmolke, Witnesses.\u00c2\u00a0 Rev. R. Golkowski<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice the blue ink handwritten addition of what appears to be Andrew’s Polish name, J\u00c4\u2122drzej<\/em>.\u00c2\u00a0 He often signed his name “Andrew J. Dominik” but this is the only indication in historical records of what the “J” may have stood for.\u00c2\u00a0 In my research, it seems that J\u00c4\u2122drzej<\/em> was the name Andrew <\/em>in Polish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
