*NOTE: The dates recorded in the above reports are possibly based on the Julian Calendar. In 1918 the Soviet Union decreed that the day after January 1st, 1918 (Julian) would become February 14th, 1918 (Gregorian). To convert, add 10 days to dates between Oct.5th, 1582 through Feb. 28th, 1700. After that date add 11 days through Feb.28, 1800; 12 days through Feb. 28, 1900, and 13 days through Feb. 28th, 2100. (from NY World Almanac 1999)

**NOTE: There is a Vincentas (dob 04/06/1855) mentioned in one of the records that was the first born to Antanas and Antanina about one year after their marriage but no other mention. Possibly an infant death. He is not listed on Antanina's death report.
