Early Life
[change | change source]He born 22 February 1833 the son of Piotr Paweł Piłsudski and Teodora Piłsudska. He was baptized on February 24 of the same year. The godparents were Wincenty Butler and his wife (maternal grandparents), Tadeusz Butler and his wife, Waleria Butler and Elżbieta Michałowska. He went to junior high school in Kroży and school in Wiłkomierz. He studied agronomy at the Agronomic Institute in Horyhorki, Mogilev Oblast. During the January Uprising, he was the commissioner of the insurgent government for the Kaunas district. On April 22, 1863, in Teneniany, Taurus County, he married Maria née Billewicz, Mogyła coat of arms, who brought four estates (approx. 12,000 ha) as a dowry, including: Adamowo and Zułów and several hundred thousand rubles. In 1874, the manor and buildings belonging to the estate in Zułów burned down completely and the family had to move to Vilnius. Due to anti-tsarist activities and the arrest of Bronisław Piłsudski (Joseph Piłsudski's older brother), the Piłsudski family had to sell all their family property to pay and thus replace the death penalty with 15 years of hard labor and exile to the island of Sakhalin.
