History
Białaszewo was a private village of Polish nobility, administratively located in the Masovian Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. In 1709, a church was erected by Seweryn Szczuka, suffragan bishop of Chełm.[2]
Following the Third Partition of Poland (1795), Białaszewo was annexed by the Prussia. In 1807 it was regained by Poles, and included within the newly established, however short-lived Duchy of Warsaw. Following the duchy's dissolution in 1815, it fell to the Russian Partition of Poland. In 1827 Białaszewo had a population of 121.[2] During the January Uprising, on March 31, 1863, it was the site of a battle between Polish insurgents and Russian troops, during which the Poles were able to retreat with only two casualties.[3] In reprisal, the Russians carried out a massacre of the inhabitants. At least 16 people were killed, including women.[4] After World War I, Poland regained independence and control of the village.
