Search for: [Abstract = "The article deals with a group of higher\-ranking municipal officials who exercised their functions in the Lublin region with the administrative Urzędów district in times of the Saxon rule \(1696–1763\). These officials include\: a burgrave, a notary, deputy head of a county and a judge, to whom regents and vicesgerents were added as a accompaniment. Most often they descended from middle\-ranking nobility and quite significant families, although there were also representatives of less affluent nobility, as well as newcomers from outside the voivodeship. They also played an important role in functioning of the local self\-government, and many of the most prominent representatives were promoted to higher offices and even lower senatorial ones. Unlike the land and central authorities, these offices were not held for life. Municipal officials were fully dependent on the local prefects of the county as their superiors, who could appoint and dismiss them at any time. There were occurrences when the new prefect of the county almost completely replaced the staff of his predecessor. The essential part of this paper is the register of people holding the offices in question, in the structure adopted in the series of indexes of land officials of the former Republic of Poland. This list is a continuation and supplementation of earlier indexes of land and municipal officials from the Bełz and Chełm lands in the first half of the 18th century."]
