Caveats on the years' registers (6)

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

T89 — The register of 1789. The heading of the card reads „T89 zob. Gołąbki” — the siglum stands in the column of sigla, as does „T94.-” above it, and the addition „zob. Gołąbki” points in all probability to the village of Jeziory Gołąbki (cf. the cross-reference „Patrz: Jeziory Gołąbki T. 75.” on card 2). In the right-hand column of the same card stands a second cross-reference: „T89 zob. pod Łuków;” — probably to the holding of the Łuków parsonage, which T90 on card 2) names as entry 7 („cz. do plebanji w Łukowie”). Neither cross-reference do I expand beyond what stands on the card. The card's own total: „raz. 14 d.”; the entries give 14 — it agrees.
T₀89 — The list of possessors of holdings of 1789 — without hearths (the hearths figure null throughout), and the card gives no total of its own. Four holdings: Czerski's, Rola's, Jezierski's and Czarnecka's. It is striking that T089 names neither the Turskis nor the Jezierski of the largest holding (Jan), who stand in T89 and T94 on card 3) — the card stops at four entries and strip „e” is empty, so this is not a breaking off of the extract.
T94 — The register of 1794. The card's own total: „Razem — 14 dymów;”, the figure underlined twice; the entries give 14 — it agrees.
S87 — The 1787 census: „92 l. + 9 ż. razem 101 l.” („101” underlined). The components add up to the „razem”. A check against the printed edition of Fr. Kumor cannot be made — we have transcribed only the parish of Trzebieszów, and Jeziory lies in the parish of Łuków.
O83 — The only O83 extract in this village; it stands on card 4).
V48 — The V48 extract is the bare name of the village: „Jeziory.” — without any second element.

The card-index entries

Every extract for this locality in the wording of the cards, year by year. One block is one occurrence: this person, in this year. At a collective item the same card text stands beside every person named — because the card names them together and they must not be separated. The hearths given at a collective item are an equal division among those named, not a reading.

above the ornamental capital letter of the surname a small superscript in brackets (the same hand and the same habit as beside „Turskiego” on card 1) in Jurki); the superscript itself is illegible [reading uncertain], it does not change the reading of the surname — the further letters are clearly „urskiego”.

RolaMarcin

T751 hearthcz. Marcina Rolego " 1card 1)

the card has the adjectival genitive „Rolego”; I record it in the headword form „Rola”, in accordance with the way the same writing („Rolego”) was resolved in Jurki (T75 entry 8).

[no surname]„Officyała Łukowskiego”official of Łuków (oficjał łukowski)

T751 hearthcz. Officyała Łukowskiego " 1card 1)

the card names the possessor by his office alone — „Officyała Łukowskiego” — without a forename and a surname; this is the official (an ecclesiastical judge) of Łuków.

the card names the person by his office alone („cz. Officyała Łukowskiego”), without a forename and a surname — the record is carried over literally, we do not expand it

CzerskiJakub

T899 hearths1 manor house, 2 brewery, 2 inn, 4 cottagescz. Jakuba Czerskiego z rzeszczą na wsi Świdrach złączoną 1 dwór, 2 brow., 2 karcz., 3 chat. o 1 go sp., 1 chat. ogro- [dalszy człon wyrazu przeniesiony do następnego wiersza i tam skreślony] = 9 d.card 3)

BREWERIES AND INNS — the reading is certain, checked at 3× magnification: „2 brow.” (= 2 breweries) and „2 karcz.” (= 2 inns) stand clearly, with the dots of abbreviation. The buildings: 1 manor house + 2 breweries + 2 inns + 3 cottages with 1 householder + 1 cottage („ogro-…”, probably a gardener's) = 9 hearths; in the breakdown of buildings both sorts of cottage are counted together as „chaty”: 4. The word describing the last cottage is broken off at the end of the line at „ogro-”, above it stands a superscribed, underlined correction (about three letters, legible as „ter”/„her”), and the beginning of the next line is taken up by a word struck out with a horizontal stroke — I have read neither the superscription nor the struck-out word [reading uncertain]; this does not disturb the reckoning, because the card itself closes the entry at „= 9 d.”. The formula „z rzeszczą” I record as it was settled in the card index at Krasusy Łęcznowola (WZOR.json, T89 entry 3: „z rzeszczą na wsi Pogonowie”, [reading uncertain] there as well). The word „złączoną” is confirmed by T089 on card 4), where the same holding of Jakób Czerski is described as lying „na Jeziorach i Świdrach”. The forename the card writes here „Jakuba”, and in T94 above „Jakóba” — the same person; I leave both forms as they stand.

Czarnecka

T891 hearth1 manor housecz. ……… Czarneckiej 1 dwórcard 3)

In the place of the forename the card has a row of dots — the author of the card index himself left the forename empty; at 3× magnification nine separate dots are clearly visible, not effaced writing. Therefore the given name remains empty and I do not enter the recorded form of the name (this is not a form derived from a husband's name, only a gap in the source). A woman — the surname in the feminine form „Czarneckiej”. From T94 on the same card and from T089 on card 4) it follows that the holding of the Czarneckis was managed by Cecylia Czarnecka, but I do not identify this entry with her, because the card gives no forename.

T₀89propination (the right to sell drink)T089 - Jeziory - części Jakóba Czerskiego na Jeziorach i Świdrach — [nadpisane nad wierszem, podkreślone] panszcz. i propinacjącard 4)

PROPINATION — the reading is certain, checked at 3× magnification: above the words „na Jeziorach i Świdrach”, underlined, stands the addition „panszcz. i propinacją” („pańszcz[yzna] i propinacja”). The addition is written in the same hand, in smaller letters. The word „panszcz.” I do not have in the the annotations dictionary, so it remains only in the text of the extract — reported. The card writes the forename „Jakoba” without a clear mark over the „o”; I record „Jakób”, as in T75, T90 and T94 of this village.

the card replaces the word „części” with a repetition mark (a quotation mark) at the beginning of the line.

CzarneckaCecylia

T₀89„ Cecylii Czarneckiej ;card 4)

the word „części” is replaced by a repetition mark. A woman — the surname in the feminine form. The same forename stands in T94 on card 3) („pod dożywociem Cecylii Czarneckiej”); two independent occurrences, the reading is certain. Beside this entry the card does NOT add „nie wysiewa 10 korcy”.

the card adds in brackets below the entry: „(1 dym przybył po r 1789)” — an explanation of the difference against the register of 1789.

the same entry also names: Czarnecki Adam2 persons on 1 hearth

the holding passed to Adam after the expiry of his mother's life tenure; I have not read the mother's forename — [reading uncertain]. The marker „(pł. of)” the card sets at the end of the entry, after the number of hearths.

a forename of her own stands on the card, but I do not decide it — the glyph is legible as „…e…l…” with the ending „-ji”; the nearest fit is „Felicji” (Felicja), but [reading uncertain] and I do not enter the form. A woman: the surname in the feminine form („Czarneckiej”), named as Adam's mother, she held the holding in life tenure.

This entry gives the forename of the woman whose forename it was not possible to read at T90, entry 2, on card 2) („po dożywociu [imię nieodczytane] Czarneckiej matki”): here „Cecylii Czarneckiej” stands clearly, and the same forename is repeated by T089 on card 4) („Cecylii Czarneckiej”). Two independent occurrences, the reading is certain. I do not change the record on card 2) — that is a matter for the owner of the work.
