Caveats on the years' registers (5)
What the compiler noted beside the entry itself, and what the table above does not show:
- T89 — The card does NOT give for T89 a line „Razem” (the only total on this card — „Razem 11 dymów;” — stands beneath the stroke closing the T94 extract, not T89), hence the total from the card is null. From the breakdown of the buildings 3 + 1 = 4 hearths come out, but this is my reckoning, not a declaration of the card.
- T90 — The total from the card: „Razem – 11 dymów wiejskich 2giej klasy;” — 1 + 10 = 11, it agrees. The title of the extract is written „Borki Swircze”, without an „e” after „Swi”, otherwise than in the heading of the card („Swiercze.”) and in T75 („Borki Swiercze”); [reading uncertain] — the second possibility is a crowded „Swiercze”.
- T94 — The total from the card: „Razem 11 dymów;” (the figure doubly underlined) — 10 + 1 = 11, it agrees. Beneath the total, at the foot of the card, stands an asterisked note referring to T89, not to T94: „*) Posiada on jeszcze części w Borkach Wyrkach, B. Sołdach; B. Paduchach”.
- S87 — The 1787 census: the card gives „22 l.” alone (the figure underlined), without a Jewish column and without a line „razem”. Recorded also in the village's the 1787 census field; the number of Jews = 0 is here an absence of mention, not an attested zero. A check against Fr. Kumor's print cannot be made — the parish of Zbuczyn is not covered by what we have transcribed.
- V48 — The V48 extract is the name of the village alone — and that in the form „Borki …”, not „Świercze”: another back-reference to the unit of card. The word itself under eightfold magnification reads „Swierce.” (after the „r” a single „c” and at once an „e”, without the loop of a „z”, the word plainly shorter than the „Swiercze” in the heading of the same card) — [reading uncertain]; the second possibility is „Swiercze” with a very crowded „cz”. There is no stroke over the „S”.
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
BorkowskiFranciszek
T754 hearthsczęść Franciszka Borkowskiego dymów 4.card 1)
The only entry of this extract; the card gives no „Razem” line, hence the total from the card null. The entry is written with the full word „część”, not with the abbreviation „cz.”. The title of the extract reads „Borki Swiercze”, though the heading of the card — „Swiercze”.

T893 hearths1 manor house, 2 cottagescz. Tomasza Radomyskiego*) pisarza ziem. Łukow = 1 dwór, 2 chat. o 1 gosp.card 2)
The card adds no number of hearths at this entry („= 3 d.” is missing) — 3 follows from the buildings set out: 1 manor house + 2 cottages with 1 householder each. The asterisk refers to the note at the foot of the card: „*) Posiada on jeszcze części w Borkach Wyrkach, B. Sołdach; B. Paduchach” — in 1789 those holdings were therefore counted SEPARATELY, otherwise than in T90 and T94. Above „Łukow” stands an abbreviation stroke. Neither an inn nor a brewery does T89 name at this holding.

T891 hearth1 manor housesuccessors† deceasedcz. sukces. Franc. Borkowskiego 1 dwór,card 2)
The card does not add the number of hearths; 1 follows from „1 dwór”. The line ends with a comma, there is no continuation — the next line is already O83.

RadomyskiTomaszland scribe of Łuków (pisarz ziemski łukowski)
T₀89propination (the right to sell drink)T₀89 – Borki Swiercze – części Tomasza Radomyskiego, pisarza ziemsk. Łukows.; propinacja;card 1)
PROPINATION — the word checked at a fivefold magnification, letter by letter: p-r-o-p-i-n-a-c-j-a, closed with a semicolon; not „propinacyi”, not „propinacyja”. This is the only mention of propination in this village: O83 names no establishment, and in the buildings set out by T89 there is neither an inn nor a brewery. The card speaks of the „częściach” (the plural) of Radomyski, so one possessor holds here more than one parcel. The whole list of the possessors of 1789 comes down in this village to a single surname.
1790 T90Hearth tax register 1790
BorkowskiFranciszek†
T901 hearthsuccessors† deceasedA) cz. sukces. Franc. Borkowskiego ————— 1 dym wiejski 2giej klasy;card 1)
Between the surname and the figure a long leader stroke (a filler up to the column of figures), not a scribal mark.

T9010 hearthsB) cz. Tomasza Radomyskiego pisarza ziemskiego łukowskiego z cz. na wsiach Borkach Wyrkach, Paduchach i Sołdach – 10 „ „ „ „ ;–card 1)
Ten hearths counted TOGETHER WITH the holdings of the same Radomyski in Borki Wyrki, Borki Paduchy and Borki Sołdy — hence the cross-references „zob. Borki Świercze” in the T90 registers of those villages (Borki Paduchy entry A, Borki Sołdy entry F): their holdings were counted here, not there. The card gives no breakdown of these 10 hearths among the several villages. The repetition marks after „10” stand in place of the words „dymów wiejskich 2giej klasy”.
1794 T94Hearth tax register 1794

Ten hearths counted TOGETHER WITH the holdings in Borki Wyrki, Borki Paduchy and Borki Sołdy — just as in T90 and just as without a breakdown among the villages; hence the cross-references „zob. Świercze” beneath the T94 totals in Borki Paduchy and Borki Sołdy. In 1794 Radomyski is already deceased — in T₀89 and T90 he still appeared in person. The office („pisarz ziemski łukowski”, land scribe of Łuków) is assigned after T89, T90, T₀89 and O83; the T94 line itself does not repeat it.

O83O83(IX) – Swiercze – cząstki szlacheckie, największa część Radomyskiego, pisarza ziemskiego Łukowskiego;card 2)
The only extract on either card entitled by the bare „Swiercze”, without „Borki”. O83 gives no forename for Radomyski — from the remaining extracts it is known that Tomasz is meant. The description names NO establishment: neither an inn, nor a brewery, nor a mill, nor a distillery, nor propination (propination is noted only by T₀89). Recorded also in the the description of the village field of the village.
