Summary:

After arranging the names (from all categories – births, weddings, deaths) from Tomaszów Mazowiecki and Żelechlinek in a chronological order, a new pattern emerged:

1) the earliest entries (1823) come from Tobiaszów n/Tomaszów Mazowiecki - Wajszczyk (2)
2) from 1826 until 1855, the records come exclusively from Tomaszów Maz - Wajszczyk (7)
3) from 1855 to 1865, the records come from Żelechlinek - Wajsczak, Wajszczak (8)
4) in 1865 and 1866, two records (marriage and death) - from Tomaszów Maz - Wajszczyk (2)
5) from 1871 to 1881, they come from Żelechlinek - Wajszczak, Wajszczuk, Wajszczyk (5)

Conclusions and plans:

Village Tobiasze belongs to the administrative district of Ujazd, where exists an ancient St Adalbert (Wojciech) Parish, which was erected already in 1429. We were not able to establish, how old is the village of Tobiasze. Żelechlinek existed already at the end of the XV century.

1. Our immediate plans are to initiate searches in the archives of: a/ the St Wojciech (Adalbert) Parish in Ujazd (erected in 1429), b/ St Bartłomiej (Bartholomew) Parish in Żelechlinek (erected at the end of XV c.) and c/ St Antoni Padewski (St Anthony from Padua) in Tomaszów Mazowiecki (erected in 1826).
2. It can be assumed (to be proven) that the Wajszczy(a,u)ks came to the town of Tomaszów
Mazowiecki from Tobiaszów – but where did they live earlier?
3. Did the Wajszczy(a,u)ks in this area belong to the same family - (errors in surname spelling)?
4. Can any names from this group be found in the earlier records in Zelechlinek and Ujazd –
did they live in the Mazowsze (Masovia) region earlier? and how early? Perhaps before their
appearance in Trzebieszow?
