Translation Request for Polish Marriage Record

JBrodzik

I found this marriage record for my 3rd-great grandparents on Geneteka. The names are transcribed as Melchior Kacper Kaska (other surname Kasiński) and Maryanna Kozioł. They were married on 22 Oct 1844 in Żdanów (parish Kleczanów). Could you please translate this record for me? I’m especially interested in why the groom has two surnames. I can see the word "alias" underlined a couple of times in the record. I am descended from one of their sons, who was born with the name Kasiński. I've never seen the name Kaska before.

It is record #4. Thank you so much!

When you enter e.g. a popular Polish name like Wisniewski in Geneteka search of swietokrzyskie region or any other region, years 1700-1800, you will get a number of entries ending with -ski, with some variations.

Marriage Record No. 4, Kleczanow Parish, dated the 22nd October 1844, of Melchior Kacper Kaska or Kasinski, a young man, Catholic, an overseer in Lisowo manor, he is 26 years old, son of Wincenty, already deceased and living Krystyna, born Dudek, married couple Kaska or Kasinski, he was born in village Lisow, Parish Malice Koscielne, and there living, and of a maiden, Maryanna Koziol, 16 years old daughter of Jan and of his deceased wife, Anna, born Skorupa, married couple Koziol, she was born in Zdanow and lives with her father. This marriage was preceded by three Marriage Banns published in Malice Koscielne Parish and in Kleczanow Parish. No impediment was detected. The newly marrieds state that they have not entered into a prenuptial agreement. Witnesses: Wojciech Koziol, a farmer, 40 years old, and Tomasz Lociak, a laborer in the manor, 30 years old.

If you check for Kaska birth entries in Malice Koscielne Parish you will find about 18 births of Kaska children in the small village Lisow (currently 165 residents), Malice Koscielne Parish, during the period of about 10 years. It is possible that to differentiate between various families in Lisow, Wincenty Kaska started using the surname as Kasinski (adjective of Kaska), but to clarify, both he and his son stated that they used before surname as Kaska and later as Kasinski.

Hello!

Here is both the translation and the transcription of the record. In regard to the alias name, I believe it is saying that Melchior's surname has been know to be spelled as both Kaska and Kasiński. I wish I knew more about why exactly there would be two surnames, so I hope someone who knows more will chime in :)

Thank you so much for the transcriptions and translations. It's an interesting theory about why the surname was changed. I have never seen that happen before. Does that mean that all "-ski" names are the adjective form of another name?

Thanks again, @Eppich Maria !

I had noticed differences in some of the surnames I'm looking for in Geneteka, but I wasn't sure why I was getting them. I guess it's telling us that those surnames are actually variations of the same name.
