„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.

1775Hearth tax register 1775333,0

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.

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.

Three persons, three hearths — it agrees. „Drozdza” I have taken as a BYNAME of Tomasz, because the collective surname of the entry („Lelińskich”) stands, by the pattern of this register, only at the end; the byname Drozd is attested in the neighbourhood. A reading of „Tomasza Drozdza” as a surname of its own is also possible — then the three persons would have two different surnames. [reading uncertain as to the status of the second element, not as to the letters].
