„Persons (different given names)” means: different combinations of a given name with a byname, not persons proved to have existed. Two namesakes from one family merge here into a single item, and the acts give nothing to tell them apart. An entry naming several families stands beside each of them — because the record names them together, and they must not be separated.

Family trees

Fragments of families assembled from the kinships the acts state outright. One fragment is as much as a single entry, or a group of entries, allows to be joined without guessing — not a whole family tree, only a certain piece of one.

The Olszewski family

The Olszewski Zychowicz and Sary families

confidence A — a single act

One act, two independent lines of three generations each, both bearing cognomens. The cancellation of an inscription of 1672 — the oldest act cited here.

Caveat. Both lines bear the same surname and are told apart by the cognomen alone.

confidence B — 7 acts

A line assembled from 7 acts, linked by persons whose filiation is recorded. Predominant acts: Quittance for the double penalty of 14 marks with a luitum of 3 marks, and for the tower confinement; Quittance in an official suit over a lost mare and acts of violence; cancellation of the protestation, the relation and the entries in the registers; Mortgage.

Caveat. The node “Sebastian Olszewski” also takes in entry 1327, in which the source does not call him anyone’s father — a namesake of his may have appeared there. This does not undermine the filiation, but the source does not confirm that these acts belong to him. An ancestor with two wives and no filiation of his own (Sebastian Olszewski) may be two men of the same name — the order of the marriages and the assignment of the children need checking against the parish registers.

Mikołaj Pogonowski and to his successors for the sum of nine Polish złoty…” – whereupon the clerk began the entry anew in its correct wording:]

The noble (Nob.) Hiacynt (Jacek) Olszewski, being of sound mind and body, deposed that he gives a quittance to the noble (Nob.) Szymon Orzyłowski and to his successors for the sum of nine Polish złoty – inscribed to him earlier by the noble (Nob.)

notes and marginalia The clerk began the entry wrongly (naming as the party quitted Mikołaj Pogonowski instead of Szymon Orzyłowski) and repeated it in its correct wording – a chancery artefact recorded in the translation.

In this chancery hand the abbreviation **„ol.” (olim)** is written as an „o” with a stroke through the shaft and is deceptively like „et”; the grammatical case decides the matter — the genitive with „filio” means **„to the son [of someone]”**, not „and to the son”. The direction of the filiation is confirmed by entry 954 — **from the same day and concerning the same parties** („Jan Szaniawski, syn zm.

notes and marginalia The first entry of the 1744 volume that shows a different geographical quarter than the 1743 volume: the village of Olszewnica lies upon the **Krzna**, that is in the north-eastern part of the Łuków land / on the borderland of Podlasie. A sum with groszy (60 złp 24 gr) – a rarity in this register. The names of the roads and of the boundaries have been read with reservation; all the persons and the village of Olszewnica agree with the PTG tags for scans 57-002 and 57-003. **A note on the given names:** in this entry the given names **Maciej** and **Mateusz** fall to persons of the same surname. The Latin *Matthias* and *Matthaeus* are, in the genitive (that is in the position of the father's name), practically indistinguishable in this hand — **Mathiae** against **Mathaei** — so that both mentions may concern one and the same name. **The readings have not been unified**; see the note „Matthias czy Matthaeus” in the sheet „O źródle i metodzie”.
