„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.

A WOMAN — one of the two things in this file that require separate attention. The forename and surname in the feminine form, in the genitive, checked with one magnification: „Maryanny Zaleskiej wdowy” — the reading is certain. the status = wdowa, a widow; the mark for a deceased person empty, because it is she who is living — the card does not say whose widow she is. The quotation mark „ stands in for the repeated „części”.
