„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.

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.

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.

LipinyZbuczyn parish

SkwirczyńskiDominik
1775Hearth tax register 1775
T754 hearths2) cz. Dominika Swierczyńskiego dym 4card 1)
On this card I read the surname „Swierczyńskiego” (S-w-i-e-r-…), while in the T90 extract lower on the same card there stands instead „Skwirczyńskiego” (with a -k- after S). Both spellings were checked on the card at magnification: in T75 after the capital „S” a „w” follows at once, in T90 a clear „k” stands between „S” and „w” — this is a discrepancy of the card index itself, not a hesitation of reading. The wording of this card is left untouched; in the index the person stands under the headword Skwirczyński (a decision of the owner of the card index, 17 IX 2026 — see „_rozstrzygniecia”). The figure „4” is underlined.
SkwirczyńskiDominik
1789Hearth tax register 1789
T891 hearth1 manor housecz. Dominika Skwirczyńskiego 1 dwórcard 2)

„1 dwór” underlined. The writing of the surname diverges between the extracts of this village — see the note at the person.

the surname [reading uncertain]: the run of letters after „Skwi” admits of being read „-rczyńskiego” or „-rzyńskiego”; in T75 on card 1) the possessor of the same forename stands as „Swierczyńskiego”, without the „k”. I do not harmonise the forms.

SkwirczyńskiDominik
1789List of possessors of holdings of 1789
T₀89does not sow 10 korcecz. Dominika Skwirczyńskiego podobnieżcard 4)
The word „podobnież” stands on the right-hand side of the line, roughly beneath the annotation „nie wysiewa 10 korcy” of entry 7, and refers to it: this possessor likewise does not sow 10 korce. Hence the same note as at entry 7. The last written line of the card and at the same time the last line of Lipiny in the card index.

on this card the surname is the most legible in the whole village: „Skwirczyńskiego”; in T75 on card 1) the possessor of the same forename stands as „Swierczyńskiego”, without the „k”. I do not harmonise the forms.

SkwirczyńskiDominik
1790Hearth tax register 1790
T901 hearthB) cz. Dominika Skwirczyńskiego ——— 1 dym wiejski 2giej klasy;–card 1)

In the right-hand column the bare figure „1” and repetition marks — the formula expanded in the text of the extract.

the surname on this card I read as „Skwirczyńskiego” (with -k- after the S); in the T75 of the same card the possessor of the same forename stands as „Swierczyńskiego” [reading uncertain — the discrepancy of writing is not harmonised]

SkwirczyńskiDominik
1794Hearth tax register 1794
T941 hearthcz. Dominika Skwirczyńskiego 1 d.;card 3)

„1 d.” underlined.

the surname [reading uncertain]; on this card I read „Skwirczyńskiego”, just as in T90 on card 1), whereas in T75 on card 1) „Swierczyńskiego” stands (without the „k”). I do not harmonise the forms.

T751 hearth11) [pierwotnie 12)] cz. Świerczyńskiego Jakóba dym 1card 2)

The number was corrected on the card after the entry concerning the parish benefice (probostwo) had been struck out. The card sets the surname before the forename.

A surname recorded in no register of this village — it appears only in the list of possessors of 1789.

the first entry of the right-hand column, black ink; it has its own, separately written note „nie wys. 10 korcy”, independent of the brace at the left-hand column. Skwirczyński does not occur in any of the registers of this village
