Hearth Tax Registers of the Łuków Land 1775–1794

Jastrząbki

Parish of Łuków, łukowski county.

Dear reader, remember that this is an AI study, that it may contain errors; treat it as indicative and verify it for yourself.

Extracts from outside the registers

Records under sigla which the card index does not expand. They give no hearths, so they enter no total.

Perth.card 1)Perth. - niema

note: The siglum „Perth.” (the map of Karol de Perthées, 1786) is outside the list of sources — it does not enter the reckoning of hearths. The note says that the village is NOT on that map: „niema”, written as one word, as was then the custom. The reading is certain, the line short and clear.

Held.card 1)Held. - "

note: The siglum „Held.” (Heldensfeld's map) is outside the list of sources. In place of the word there stands a repetition mark (a double apostrophe) referring back to the line above — that is, „niema” as well. The repetition mark was resolved in the same way at Gręzówka (card 3) and at Jeziory (card 2).

Top.card 1)Top. — "
note: The siglum „Top.” (a topographic map) is outside the list of sources. Again a repetition mark = „niema”. The three notes together mean that the compiler of the card index looked for this village on three maps and found it on none — that is a finding in itself, and that is why I transcribe them, although none of these sigla enters the reckoning of hearths.

Without an extract for 1775, 1789, 1790 and 1794 — no card of this village carries that tariff. It is a missing extract in the card index, not a gap in the numbering of the cards.

Caveats on the years' registers (1)

What the compiler noted beside the entry itself, and what the table above does not show:

  • V48 — The only extract on this card that comes from the list of sources. Apart from it the card has only three map notes (Perth., Held., Top.), standing in extracts outside the list of sources. No total, no hearths, no population — the arithmetical check has nothing here to check.

This locality in the full edition of the hearth-tax registers — together with a search across all persons, a modern map, Perthées’s engraving of 1786 and a statistical summary.
