English: Extract from Chronicle of Ludwik Kusionowicz, priest in Gdów.
Ks Ludwik Kusionowicz (1816-1888) chronicled the historic Battle of Gdów which took place in 1846 (in the field next to Gdów Cemetery) and in which Polish 'insurgents', under the command of the absent Colonel Suchorzewski, fought for independence from Austria in the only battle of the Kraków Uprising. Ludwik, the parish priest in Gdów from 1842 to 1888, provided refuge in the Gdów Church for supporters of the Polish nationalists who were fleeing the Austrian military and their peasant militia. Ludwik was born in Czchów on 3 August 1816 to parents Izydor and Marianna (nee Karnikiewicz) and after studying theology in Vienna was ordained as a priest in Tarnów in 1840, by Bishop F Zachariasiewicz, before being appointed the parish priest in Gdów on 6 June 1842. With the financial support of Eleonora Lanckorońska Fihauser (1777-1850), heiress of Fałkowice Manor, Ludwik expanded the Gdów Church by extending the presbytery and building a new sacristy and hexagonal chapel. On 12 September 1865 Ludwik was appointed state school inspector for the Deanery of Wieliczka and after previously serving as Vice-Dean was appointed Dean of Wieliczka on 1 July 1880. Ludwik, who was also a founder of the Temperance Brotherhood, continued to serve as the Gdów parish priest until his passing on 27 December 1888. Prior to the famous battle of 1846, Ludwik, again with the support of Eleonora Fihauser, had an impressive Chapel built in the local cemetery and he was laid to rest underneath this Chapel beside which rests his "nephew" Sylwester (1828-1877) in a prominent grave watched over by a beautiful statue of Mary sculpted by Edward Stehlik (pl).The Scotch Mist Gallery contains many photographs of historic buildings, monuments and memorials of Poland.
