„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.

The well-born (Gen.) Marianna Żelińska, wife of the late well-born (Gen.) Jan Białkowski, his widow left, on the one side, and Wawrzyniec Krasuski [the reading of the surname uncertain] on the other side, being of sound mind and body, deposed that a certain contract, concerning certain things and estates specified in it, drawn up and written between themselves under the act and date here at Łuków on 23 January of the current year 1744, signed in their own hands and secured by the land-law damages – they confirm in everything.

[The deponents] unlettered.

notes and marginalia The contract was drawn up and at once, on the same day, confirmed in the castle court – the usual practice of giving a private agreement the force of an official act. The surname of the second party is uncertain: the PTG tag for scan 57-008 gives it with equal hesitation as „Wawrzyniec Krasuski?”.

The well-born (Gen.) Stanisław Czerski, son begotten of the late well-born (Gen.) Kazimierz Czerski with the late well-born (Gen.) Barbara née Lesiecka, being of sound mind and body, deposed that he, in his own name and in the name of the well-born (Gen.) Rozalia Czerska, his sister german, an unmarried maiden, for whom he stands surety, gives a quittance to the well-born (Gen.) Jan Żeliński together with his wife – the daughter of the late well-born (Gen.) Teresa née Matynek [uncertain reading] and of the late well-born (Gen.) Jan Czerski, the paternal uncle of the deponent – as his maternal cousin and successor, and to his successors:

for the suit and official action brought with the present office on account of very numerous deeds and papers (munimenta et documenta) concerning the substance of the Czerski, left by the late well-born (Gen.) Teresa née Matynek Czerska with the parties quitted at the hour of her death, brought both by that same party quitted and by the party itself and by the well-born (Gen.) Czerska, the aunt, further for the manifestations, the relations, the condemnations and their execution, for the decrees and for the whole and entire process –

by reason of the surrender to him by the parties quitted of those same deeds and of the satisfaction rendered he gives a quittance; and the manifestations, the relations, the condemnations and whatsoever decrees handed down in that matter, as also the whole process, he cancels.

[The deponent] unlettered.

notes and marginalia A rare object of dispute: neither land nor a sum of money, but the **property deeds of the family** („munimenta et documenta ad substantiam Czerscianam spectantia”) left with kinsfolk at the hour of their holder's death. The matter is closed by the physical surrender of the papers (extraditio). The pattern of the kinships is set down very briefly – [uncertain reading] as to the particulars; the persons agree with the PTG tags for scan 57-008.

Kazimierz Czerski, an unmarried maiden, his future wife, and to her successors he is bound and remains indebted for the sum of five hundred Polish złoty by way of a certain, true, just, liquid and simple debt; which sum he inscribes and secures upon the inheritance share, whatever falls to him after the late well-born (Gen.) Teresa Matynkówna, the widow left by the late well-born (Gen.) Jan Czerski, his maternal cousin; undertaking to pay it on the first demand of his future wife and to lodge it with the present records; and this under a like penalty of five hundred Polish złoty, for which he appoints the present court.

[Autograph signature:] Jan Żeliński

notes and marginalia The highest pre-nuptial inscription of this part of the 1744 volume (500 złp), and at the same time the key to entry 1105: Teresa née Matynek Czerska was **the maternal cousin of Jan Żeliński**, and not his wife – hence his share in the inheritance and in the dispute over the deeds of the Czerski family.
