Contribution to the History of the Evangelical Reformed Congregations at Piaski Luterskie (Wielkie) near Lublin and Tursko Wielkie, and the Contacts between the Calvinist Unities of Lesser Poland and Lithuania at the Turn of the Nineteenth Century

Abstract

The article presents unknown letters concerning the filling of pastoral vacancy at Tursko Wielkie written by Rev. Jan Herowski (from 1798 and 1799), and the letters about the Evangelical Reformed Congregation at Piaski Luterskie (Wielkie) from 1806 by two pastors associated with it: Adam Huisson and Józef Kühn. The letters correct and complement our knowledge about the two congregations and the pastors mentioned above as well as reveal contacts between the Calvinist Unities (Churches) of Lesser Poland and of Lithuania at the turn of the nineteenth century.
