„Separate entries for persons” means: separate entries of a given name with a surname and a byname, not persons proved to have existed. The same man recorded in four registers is one entry, but two namesakes from the same village are sometimes impossible to tell apart, and over twenty years a parcel could pass to a son of the same name. The hearths given at a collective entry are an equal division among those named — a calculation, not a reading.

No entry from 1789, 1790 and 1794. This is the absence of the surname in the cards transcribed so far, not proof that the family was not there then: in the card file the 1794 register covers fewer villages than the others, and the 1775 one sometimes counts a whole starosty in a single entry, without surnames.

Where the surname occurs

The localities in which the card file records this surname, with the number of entries and of the hearths falling to it in each village.

The card-index entries

All the extracts for this surname in the wording of the cards. One block is one occurrence: this person, in this register. In a collective entry the same text of the card stands beside every person named — because the card names them together, and they must not be separated.

FOR THE OWNER'S DECISION. A collective entry closed by the surname „— Rolów”, underlined with a wavy stroke exactly as collective surnames are underlined in this register („Nurzyńskich”, „Borkowskich”, „Sulejów”, „Radomyskich”). By the pattern of a collective entry the surname of all sixteen would therefore be ROLA, and the second elements („Kornickiego”, „Hadrika”, „Kacprzyka”, „Krupczyka”, „Żakowicza”, „Bojanka”) would be BYNAMES. I have entered it otherwise — to each his own second element as a surname, and the surname „Rola” only to the four persons whom the card leaves without a second element — because Kornicki is a surname attested in the neighbourhood, and bynames the card index nowhere else uses in this village. The resolution (surnames or bynames) requires the owner's decision; the text itself is entered literally. THE NUMBER OF PERSONS: sixteen records, sixteen hearths („po 1 dymie”), but seventeen persons, because „Franciszka z bratem” is two persons on one hearth. At „Andrzeja Krupczyka” and „Macieja Krupczyka” the ink is corrected (the surnames written one after the other), but both forenames are legible and both are needed for the sixteen hearths to come out. A WOMAN: „Piotrowej Bojakowej” — a form derived from the husband's name, the card gives no forename of her own; the surname is written in the feminine form, as it stands. The second element [reading uncertain] — it may be „Bojankowej”, because two lines below stands „Józefa Bojanka”.

This surname in full edition of the hearth-tax registers — together with the search across all persons, the comparison of figures through the registers, the modern map and the Perthées engraving of 1786.
