Dolna Lehota Census of 1715

The Dolna Lehota census includes the names of land owners (possession) in Lehotka (Orava, Dolny Lehotá) in 1715. The names Joannes Dieska and Georgius Dieska, both men, appear on the roles. It would appear that women are not included in the census as likely women did not own land in those times. No ages are recorded but it appears that the amount of land owned and farmed are notated for purposes of taxes to be paid to the crown.
