„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.

notes and marginalia The entry passes from the left-hand page of scan 57-017 (f. 15v) to the right-hand one (f. 16r). The surname „Krasowski” has been read distinctly, but it is not in the PTG tags for scan 57-017 (the tags note in this place, among others, Antoni Okniński, who appears, however, only in entry 1156) – the discrepancy has been noted, the reading has not been smoothed over. The maiden surname of Anna Gilowska is written indistinctly in the manuscript („de Ob[rą]palskie” or „de Ostrzepalskie”); the PTG tag gives „Anna Obrąpalska?? Gilowska” with the indexer's own question mark – the reading of the tag has been adopted. The deponent signed in his own hand in Polish. The date of the cession of 1738 („w wigilię św.
