„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 | 2 | 2 | 2,0 |
| 1789 | Hearth tax register 1789 | 1 | 1 | 1,0 |
| 1789 | List of possessors of holdings of 1789 | 2 | 2 | — |
| 1790 | Hearth tax register 1790 | 1 | 1 | 1,0 |
| 1794 | Hearth tax register 1794 | 1 | 1 | 1,0 |
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.
