Extracts from outside the registers

Records under sigla which the card index does not expand. They give no hearths, so they enter no total.

V48V48 - Szyszki.

note: The extract carries the name alone, without content and without hearths — as with the other villages of this batch it remains outside the reckoning of hearths. The form „Szyszki”, agreeing with the heading of the card, and differing from the „Szyski” of the T89 line.

O83 (IX)O83 (IX) - wieś dziedziczna XX. dominikanów konwentu warszawskiego;
note: The whole characterisation of the village that the card index gives: the inheritance of the Dominicans of the Warsaw convent and nothing beyond that. The description is much shorter than at Jamielnik (card 2), where O83 (IX) adds the notice of the chapel and of the priest-steward living beside it. „XX.” = księża, the priests. Not one person by name.
MPMP - do X.X. dominikanów warszawskich;
note: An extract without hearths, and so — as at Brzozowica, Ruska Wola, Dębowierzchy, Lipniaki and Jamielnik — it remains outside the reckoning of hearths. Unlike the MP of card 2) (Jamielnik) it gives no variant form of the name of the village: the line begins directly with „do”. The last written line of the card.

spellings on the cards: Szyszki, Szyski

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.
