Comments:
1. All entries may contain name, patronymic, surname, profession in free sequence.
2. The entries are written in different modes in Old Polish. So it is necessary to read them in 1 mode. For example:
196. Plac Haima Lisieka - Plot of Haim Lisiek
3. Pronunciation in English is different from Polish. For example:
cz = ch
sz = sh
ck = tsk
rsz = sh (but more hard)
ch = h (_ like rsz)
4. I don't know what means the symbol that looks like "W" and like "Number". In my table it was written as "#". May be it designates a feature of a landholding.
5. The illegible inscriptions and the inscriptions with a strange sense were marked by "(?)".
6. The Map was made in 1806, not in 1808 !
7. As you can see - the map is not complete. Only the central part of Nesvizh was drawn and described. May be I could find another parts of Map - it will be great!
8. A lot of Jews were living in the central part of Nesvizh. We can make a conclusion that there were not curbs from non-Jewish people and there were the rich men in Jewish community. (That is confirmed by fact of privileges that were made by Radzivills for Jews.) Some of them were handicraftsmen. That was traditionally for Jewish people in towns of Polish Kingdom and Russian Empire. The representatives of one trade lived compactly. (Such as "Ulica Zlotnika" and shoemakers at 70-72) May be some of them were usurers (see No. 97).
9. If to take into account that approximately 7000 persons lived in Nesvizh at that period you can ask me about discordance between this fact and such a little list. But there were only a names of landowners (or leasers). The families were big (7-12 people). Some of the people had no any land property. The last number in the list is 508. So the quantity of people is normal.
