Some of the terms used are the following 

( from Perplexity AI):

Columns:  




(Other):         Ulegacz--Lodger, mezczyzn--males, kobiety--females, gr--groszy (money), florin (money), osob--persons. 

I used both Chat GPT and Perplexity Pro AI to translate and organize a resident comparison list. They did differ in translations.

For the files, click on 001 or 002.  This will bring you to lists of names (first & last), addresses, birthdates, occupations. These are original documents.

NOTE: on my computer  I need to "zoom out" & scroll down to see the lists.

            Top left corner you can click on "previous" or "next" photo  to move forward or back; or zoom out to make image smaller.
