Dear reader, remember that this is an AI study, that it may contain errors; treat it as indicative and verify it for yourself.
„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.
| Year | Source | Entries | Persons | Hearths |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1775 | Hearth tax register 1775 | 1 | 1 | 15,0 |
| 1789 | Hearth tax register 1789 | 1 | 1 | 16,0 |
| 1789 | List of possessors of holdings of 1789 | 2 | 2 | — |
| 1790 | Hearth tax register 1790 | 2 | 2 | 16,0 |
| 1794 | Hearth tax register 1794 | 2 | 2 | 16,0 |
The year 1789 stands twice in the table, and rightly so: these are two different sources. The register gives the hearths, the list of parcel-holders does not — which is why the list carries a dash and not a zero, and the hearths of 1789 are not counted twice.

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.
Dębowicaparafia Łuków
a woman — the surname in the feminine form, as on the card. The card writes it with a small letter („Krystyny kamieńskiej”); in the record it has been standardised to „Kamieńska”.
MościskaTrzebieszów parish
the same entry also names: Mościcki Piotr †2 persons on a holding without hearths
in the right-hand column of the same card a separate entry „cz. Piotra Mościckiego” — that is a different person, and a living one
Nurzynaparafia Łuków
A WOMAN, read twice at fivefold magnification. The card gives no forename of her own, only the form derived from the husband's name „Wojciechowej”; recorded literally in the recorded form of the name, the given name empty, because the card does not know it. The surname in the feminine form, as it stands: „Kamieńskiej” → „Kamieńska”. The word „wdowy” refers to her herself, so the status „wdowa”, and the mark for a deceased person empty; Wojciech Kamieński, her husband, is not named here as a holder and I do not enter him separately. The largest single holding in the village — 15 hearths out of 37.
A WOMAN — the card confines itself to the surname alone in the feminine form, without a forename and without a form derived from the husband's name, so the given name and the recorded form of the name are empty. NOTE ON THE SPELLING OF THE SURNAME: at fivefold magnification „Kamińskiej” is visible here — without the „e” before the „ń” — whereas card 1) (T75), card 2) (T90) and T94 on the same card have „Kamieńskiej”. The writing of the card remains literally in the text of the extract („cz. Kamińskiej…”) and here, but in the list of persons I give the standard form of the card index „Kamieńska” — just as with the Dembowscy, and for the same reason: this is indisputably the same person as in T75, T90, T94 and T₀89 (the same holding, the same 15–16 hearths), and a separate record „Kamińska” would break her in the index into two women. TO BE DECIDED BY THE OWNER whether „Kamińska” is to go into `nazwiska.json` as a variant of „Kamieńska”. The reckoning of the buildings agrees with the number of hearths: 1 dwór + 1 browar + 2 karczmy + 12 chat = 16. THE WORDS „browar” AND „karczmy” READ WITH CERTAINTY (magnification 2.5×, the letters „b-r-o-w-a-r” and „k-a-r-c-z-m-y” all legible) — this is the only attestation of a brewery in the village and the only one of two inns. The writing „z częścią na wsi Dembowicy” binds this possession to the neighbouring Dębowica (cf. wies-debowica.json) — the holding at Nurzyna and the holding at Dembowica are counted here together, which means that the figure 16 need not fall in its entirety to Nurzyna alone. TO BE DECIDED BY THE OWNER. After „o 1” one word is struck out, before „gospod.”; the struck-out word I do not read.
the same entry also names: Łaski Jan2 persons on a holding without hearths
A WOMAN — a forename of her own, Krystyna, the surname in the feminine form „Kamieńskiej”, as in T90 (card 2) and T94 (card 3); this is the same person as „Wojciechowa Kamieńska wdowa” from T75 (card 1) and „Kamińska” from T89 (card 3). The novelty of this card: her holding is in 1789 IN THE POSSESSION of Jan Łaski — „w pos.” I expand as „w posesji/posiadaniu”, in possession, the card abbreviates it. The surname of the possessor read from a threefold magnification: the capital letter is an „Ł” (a loop struck through with a crossbar), so „Łaski”, not „Zaski”. Łaski is here a NEW person — on none of the four earlier cards of the village does he appear.
A WOMAN, read twice at fourfold magnification; here the card gives her OWN FORENAME — Krystyna — and her husband's title in the feminine form: „podczaszyny trembowelskiej” (podczaszyna trembowelska, wife of the deputy cupbearer of Trembowla). The surname in the feminine form, as it stands: „Kamieńskiej” → „Kamieńska”. This is the same holding as entry 1 in T75 on card 1) („cz. Wojciechowej Kamieńskiej wdowy – dymów 15”) — the same number of hearths and the same surname; T75 names her by the form derived from her husband's name, T90 by a forename of her own. I do not merge the years, but I record the agreement. The marker is written out on the card in full: „/płaci ofiarę/”, and not with the abbreviation „/pł. of./” — copied literally.
A WOMAN. The card gives a forename of her own — Krystyna — and the surname in the feminine form „Kamieńskiej”, but WITHOUT the title which T90 on card 2) carries beside the same person („podczaszyny trembowelskiej”). The same holding as entry 1 in T75 (card 1), „cz. Wojciechowej Kamieńskiej wdowy”) and entry 1 in T90 (card 2) — everywhere 15 hearths. The figure „15” underlined.
