Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to provide a critical assessment of the registries of town clerks in the Old Town and New Town of Braniewo (until 1772) compiled by Danuta Bogdan and Jerzy Przeracki. With all due respect given to the Authors and the effort they put into the project, the article points to some omissions and a number of errors and inconsistencies of varying importance and nature. A lot of attention is paid to relatively frequent disparities between the material collected in annual lists and the data compiled in the name index.
