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.

1789 T89Hearth tax register 1789

ŁaskiAntonilieutenant of the National Cavalry (porucznik kawalerii narodowej)
T899 hearths1 manor house, 1 brewery, 1 inn, 6 cottagesAntoniego Łaskiego z częścią na wsi Wierzejkach złączona: dwór, brow., karcz., 6 chat. o 1 gosp. = 9 d.
The breakdown closes: 1 + 1 + 1 + 6 = 9. The nine hearths take in the holding in Szczepanki together with the holding in the village of Wierzejki („z częścią na wsi Wierzejkach złączona”) — the 1789 register counts both together, and so the figure must not be taken for the state of Szczepanki alone. The word „złączona” is written without diacritics; the tail of a „g” from the line above cuts across it from the top [reading uncertain as to the letter, certain as to the sense].

T₀89propination (the right to sell drink)T089, wś – Antoniego Łaskiego, porucz. kaw. nar. z częściami na Wierzeykach -; propinacja;

The whole village („wś”), not a holding. The name of the neighbouring village is written here „Wierzeykach”, and in T89 on card „Wierzejkach”.

T903 hearthsu. Antoniego Łaskiego porucznika kawalerji narodowej – dymów 3

Before the forename a one-letter abbreviation „u.” — probably „u[rodzonego]”, of the wellborn, but the card does not expand it [reading uncertain].

1794 T94Hearth tax register 1794

Łaski
T943 hearthsT94 – wieś Łaskiego – 3 dymy;

The card gives no forename in this line; T90 and T089 call the possessor Antoni Łaski, and O83 makes Wojciech Łaski the hereditary owner of the village — we do not merge them.
