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.

MPMP- Sęciaski - do starostwa Łukowskiego; na samej mapie Sęciaszka;
note: The siglum „MP” from outside the list of the eight — it does not enter the reckoning of hearths. The note sets two forms of the name against each other: the headword form „Sęciaski” and the one that stands on the map itself — „Sęciaszka”. Both read under threefold magnification, the tail of the „ę” distinct in both. The same shape of note (the name from the map against the name from the list) has the MP at Krynka (card).
Ls.89card 2)Ls.89. wś. - do star. łukowskiego. czterech sołtysów na łanie wybranieckim grunta w dwóch polach urodzajne, w trzecim zapiaszczate, łąk mało, błotne, miejsce zwane Kąnty;
note: The siglum „Ls.89” (the lustration of 1789) from outside the list. A note of the same construction as the Ls.89 at Krynka (card 3) — there too „czterech sołtysów”, four village headmen. „Kąnty” is transcribed literally, with „ą” in the first syllable, just as it stands on the card; the present-day form would run „Kąty”. „zapiaszczate” likewise literally.
St.89card 2)St.89 - Sienciaszka wś do star. łukowskiego - w pos. Sebastyana Dłuskiego, star. grodowego łukows.; 357 l. kat. (191 m., 166 k.) w tym: gosp.: (64 m., 62 k., syn. do l. 15 - 54, syn. od l. 15 - 24, cór 59); kom.: (17 m., 24 k., syn. do l. 15 = 1, syn. od l. 15 - 1, cór. 8); rzemieśl. (2 m., 2 k., syn. do l. 15 - 1, cór. 1); służący (26 m., 10 k.)
note: The siglum „St.89” (the state of the population in 1789) from outside the list. THE READING OF THE FIGURES IS CONFIRMED BY THE RECKONING, NOT BY A SECOND EXAMINATION: men 64 (gosp.) + 54 (syn. do l. 15) + 24 (syn. od l. 15) + 17 (kom.) + 1 + 1 + 2 (rzemieśl.) + 1 + 26 (służący) + 1 (a beggar, from card 3) = 191; women 62 + 59 (cór) + 24 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 10 = 166; 191 + 166 = 357, exactly as many as the card declares in „357 l. kat. (191 m., 166 k.)”. The reckoning closes only together with the continuation from card 3) („żebraki 1 m.”), which independently confirms that 704 is the continuation of THIS entry. The continuation (the Jews) — on card 3).
St.89 c.d.card 3)St.89 - c.d. żebraki 1 m.; 8 l. żyd. (4 m., 4 k.); = karczmarz z żoną i dziećmi
note: The continuation of the St.89 extract begun on card 2) — the card itself marks this with the abbreviation „c.d.”. It closes the reckoning of the Catholic population (the beggar as the 191st man) and adds 8 Jewish persons (4 m., 4 k.), explained as a single family: „karczmarz z żoną i dziećmi”, an innkeeper with his wife and children. A WORD FROM THE TRIO REQUIRING VIGILANCE: „karczmarz” — the reading is certain, the word is written distinctly, in full, without abbreviation; it is the only record in this village that says WHO held the inn (the inn itself is named by T89 on card). The figure 8, broken down into 4 m. + 4 k., agrees with itself.

spellings on the cards: Sięciaszka, Sięciasska, Sienciaszka, Sęciaski, Sęciaszka

Without an extract for 1775 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.
