Notes
a. Note:   I also found Franciszka Donderowicz. She was born in Slesin on Sep 24 1851
 to Jozef and Marianna Dzialakiewicz. They were married on Nov 21 1843. Jozef was 20, born in Slesin to the late Seweryn and Jozefa Rominska
 (alive). Marianna was 20, born in Slesin to the late Stanislaw and Rozalia
 Targosinska (alive) Records from Wloclawek Poland...sent by Dr Lukasz Bielecki-------------------------
  As to the Slesin and Skulsk dialect, it was a very unique cultural
 > phenomenon. Many people in those two small cities worked as manufacturers
 > of religious items during the entire 19th century. It was nearly a sort of
 a local industry. Some of them only manufactured them, others managed their distribution to most remote villages in Poland and Russia - in fact not only Roman Catholic but also Eastern Orthodox. The Skulsk religious icons were known far outside the region. It was only when the professional
 and cheap poligraphy was developed in the 1920'ies that printing companies made that flourishing industry extinct. And those people who organized the distribution of icons etc. were a very special kind of people: usually wandering tradesmen, often with open links to the outlaws in all parts of the Russian Empire - they developed a strange way of communicating with cosmopolitan wandering people of all Eastern Europe from that time. The 'dialect' was totally illegible to those not involved in the business and full of words from Yiddish, Ukrainian, Greek as well as new words invented by themselves. Some expressions from that speak were
 retained in the 'modern' slang of criminals or 'petty criminals' and several are even known in literary Polish now as expressive words pertaining to the criminality - as 'majcher' (a knife, a word which has Greek roots) or 'kic' (jail) - no etymology can be identified. Of course all of that doesn't mean that just and only Skulsk people invented that dialect - but due to the profession of those involved in the
 icons business, their way of life etc. it was a very distinct detail characteristic for those two towns - and the legend still inks them with all of that fascinating phenomenon.
