Caveats on the years' registers (5)
What the compiler noted beside the entry itself, and what the table above does not show:
- T75 — The T75 heading covers three villages together: Krzesk Stary, Krzesk Królowa Niwa and Krzesk Wesołka — the figures of hearths are not divided among the individual villages. In this line the name is written three times without the „z”: „Kresk” (checked under magnification and compared with the heading of the card, where a clear „Krzesk” stands). The form „Królowe” (instead of „Królowa”) [reading uncertain].
- T89 — Under T89 the card notes only the holding of Józef Łaski and refers for the rest to „zob. T89 pod Zawady w par. Zbuczyn”. The T89 record for Krzesk Stary is therefore INCOMPLETE on this card — the remaining holdings stand under another village of the card index. The figure 30 d. is the total of that one entry (doubly underlined on the card), not the total of the whole village.
- T₀89 — A list of possessors of holdings of 1789; the siglum is a looped T with the index 0 (T₀89), checked under magnification — not „Po99” and not the plain „T89”, which for the same village stands separately on card 2. Without hearths, hence `dymy: null` throughout. The heading covers three villages together.
- T90 — T90 counts „wieś Krzesk z przyległościami” together — the holdings cover both Krzesks (Królowa Niwa and Krzesk Stary) as well as Wesołka, Zawady, Kwasy, Sobicze; the card gives no T90 total
- T94 — T94 begins on card 2 (card 2) and runs on onto card 3 (card 3) as „c.d. T94”. Card 2) gives no total. The holdings are counted together for several villages (both Krzesks, Wesołka, Zawady, Kwasy).
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.
1775 T75Hearth tax register 1775
the card gives no forenames; a collective item („Zalewskich”) without a listing of the persons. In T90 the same holding is written as „Kazim. Zaliwskiego i brata” — the spelling of the surname differs on one and the same card (Zalewski / Zaliwski)
1789 T89Hearth tax register 1789
the word „złączona” [reading uncertain] — the word is broken across the line („z łą- / czona”), and over the nasal letter a sign like a tilde. The buildings: 1 + 2 + 3 + 23 + 1 = 30, which agrees with the card's own total. The hearths are counted jointly for three villages (Królowa Niwa, Krzesk Stary, Wesołka), not for Krzesk Stary alone.

the same entry also names: Niemiera Antoni2 persons on a holding without hearths
In T90 (card 1) and T94 (card 2) the same holding is held by „Michał Niemiera z bratem”, here by „Antoni Niemiera i brat jego” — a discrepancy of forename between the years, which I do not smooth over. The name of the village written „Królowie Niwie” (not „Królowej”). The brother without a forename.
