# Łęczna — *Miasto Łęczna, vol. IX* (administration & fiscal) 1852–1865 — Jewish extraction
**Companion data file:** `Sheets/Łęczna - 1852-1865 - Miasto Łęczna vol IX.xlsx` — **103 person-mentions**. Continues the AGAD *Miasto Łęczna* administrative series (vols I–VIII done earlier).
**Source.** *Miasto Łęczna, vol. IX.* **AGAD**, fond **Komisja Rządowa Spraw Wewnętrznych**, ref **1/191/0/-/3649**, **jednostka [17742786](https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/jednostka/-/jednostka/17742786)**, 425 scans (424 content + cover), 1852–1865. Exact-page template: `…/jednostka/17742786?p_p_id=Jednostka&_Jednostka_delta=1&_Jednostka_cur=<scan>`.
**What this book is.** A town-administration + fiscal volume of the Russian-partition era. **Thinner in named Jews than vol VIII** — a large share of the 424 scans are impersonal Łęczna town-budget (*etat / Kassa Ekonomiczna*) dossiers and building/repair correspondence naming no individuals. The Jewish content clusters in a few record-groups: the **town-income lease matters** (brickworks/*cegielnia*, inn-fees, market/*dochód radziecki*, consumption, propination) with named lessees and auction bidders; the **propination-monopoly disputes** (owner Ludwik Grabowski vs Jewish liquor-traders, 1855–57); a few **fair/house/plot disputes** (1860–62); and the **kosher-slaughter penalty case** (1859–63). Two older lease contracts (1800 and 1801) are **copied** into the volume as precedents. All 424 content scans read (20 readers).
## ⭐ Confirmed vault matches (deep-read by eye 2026-07-06)
- ⭐ **[[Lejbus Edelsztajn (b.1817)]]** (blood; son of [[Herszek Edelsztajn (b.1790)]]) — **lessee of the Łęczna town brickworks (*cegielnia*) / economic-cash income, 1852–1856** (right to make/fire brick, roof-tile, lime on the town commons). Won the 1852 auction at rs 26.66 (sc.9), signed the 19/31 May 1854 *Kontrakt* in his own hand "Leyb Edelsztejn" (sc.53–54); recurs sc.39–47, 82–95. = the "Лейбусь Эдельштейнъ" of the 1866 table. First ## Narrative written (bio: full).
- ⭐ **[[Rubin Edelsztajn (b.1744)]]** (direct ancestor, "Rubin Iłowicz") — a **copied 1800 contract** names him as lead of a three-man Jewish syndicate (with Chaim Sztybowicz & Lelman Lejbowicz) leasing the **entire Łęczna town propination for 38,000 złp**, 1 July 1800, from the estate of Józef Mierzejewski (sc.169–171). New record; folded into his Research/Evidence/Narrative.
- ⭐ **[[Srul Hochberger (b.1820)]]** (blood; Hochberger line) — **lessee of the Łęczna inn-tax income** (fair-time innkeeper/restaurateur fees from Christian & Jewish inns), 3-year *Kontrakt* 1856–58 at Rs 32.50/yr, signed "Srul Hochbergier" (sc.133–134). Ties his record between the 1847 house-128 petition and the 1866 table.
## Candidates & non-matches (screened, not confirmed)
- **Wolf Fajn** — a "Wolf Fajn" appears in Mordka Bergerman's 1860 fair-complaint (sc.274) and as *"syn mój Wolf Fajn,"* **son of the butcher Szmul Szapsa Fajn** (sc.373). The vault's [[Wolf Fajn (b.1816)]] is a son of **[[Lejbus Fajn (b.1789)]]** — a *different father* — so the sc.373 Wolf Fajn is **not** the vault man; the fatherless sc.274 mention is ambiguous. **Candidate only.**
- **Mordka (Mordko) Bergerman** — house-No.-15 owner & complainant in the 1860/1862 Corpus-Christi-fair abuse matter (sc.274, 338–339). Vault has [[Mordko Bergierman]] (no vitals); given name + surname + Łęczna fit but nothing anchors it. **Candidate.**
- **Berek Balter** — named in passing (with Lejbuś Goldenberg) as harassing Bergerman (sc.339). Vault has [[Berek Balter (b.1807)]]. Passing mention. **Candidate.**
- **Szmul Szapsa Fajn** — Łęczna butcher / kosher-slaughter lessee, 1859–64 penalty case (sc.364–378); his son "Wolf Fajn." Not clearly a vault person (a distinct Fajn butcher line). **Candidate/non-vault.**
- **Manes Zylber** — plenipotentiary of the Jewish community in the 1858–59 plot-83/84 litigation (sc.221–261). Recurring Łęczna figure; no "Manes Zylber" profile in the vault. **Candidate.**
- Non-vault recurring names: **Dawid Ringelheim** (market-fee tax-farmer), **Chaim Wajnberg** (brickworks bidder), **Lejbuś Goldenberg**, **Dawid Szapiro/Szafir & Natan Szafir** (propination/consumption lessees), **Hilel/Hilka Friedman** (economic-cash lessee 1863–65), **Symcha Bergerman**, **Szmul Tenenbaum**, **Judka Ekhaus**, plus assorted liquor-traders (Ejzyk Rozencweig of Lublin, etc.).

## Open questions
- **Wolf Fajn / Mordko Bergierman / Berek Balter / Manes Zylber** — candidate identifications only (see above); each needs a record naming a parent, house, or vitals to confirm against the vault. Court-hand given names on the fair-complaint scans (274–275, 338–339) worth a user hand-check.
- **Szmul Szapsa Fajn's butcher line** (sc.364–378) and the 1857 batch of penalized Łęczna butchers (Chaim Fejn, Icek Herz Blusztein, Mordka Borensztein, etc.) — to place in the vault.
- **Ownership timeline:** the copied 1800/1801 leases put **Józef Mierzejewski** as Łęczna's owner in 1800 and **Adolf von Kalckreuth** by 1801 — earlier than the 1809 Kalckreuth contract; worth reconciling with the Sapieha privileges (1787–1801).
