Home Addresses of Bukowsko Residents at the End of the XVIII Century

The following records were compiled from the Bukowsko Spis Parafialny by Debbie Greenlee. She is the owner and author of this page.

The following record was found in the Spis Parafialny of the Bukowsko parish as a typed, loose sheet of paper. Transcription was done by Debbie Greenlee. There is no explanation on the sheet other than the title shown above. There is no indication when this list of names and addresses was compiled. I suggest that the researcher use this list in conjunction with the translation of the Bukowsko village section of the Spis Parafialny.

The Notes column seems to list the "current" spelling of the surname found in the Surname column. Some of the surnames may indicate an archaic spelling. Some of the given names have an archaic spelling. The use of the letter 'y' in place of a 'j' is an old way of spelling that particular given name and means nothing more.

All question marks found in the list were placed there by whomever compiled this list. Endnotes are mine meant to help people understand what is written. For example, the Jewish synagogue and the city hall are listed.

Whomever originally composed this list chose not to indicate a wife's given name if her husband was deceased, instead simply indicating that the owner of the house was the "wdowa" (widow). There are several places in the list where an object name was typed in the given name column rather than an actual given name. A "Terms" and "Diminutive" section can be found at the end of the list.

If you have any questions or would like a copy of the spis image please contact Debbie Greenlee.
