Non-city starosty of Tyszowce was located in the province of Belz and received the status of royal land in 1462. Its territory included the town of Tyszowce and villages: Mikulin, Perespa, Klatwy and Przewale. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the starosty suffered from a significant increase of various negative phenomena. The crown lands had bitterly tasted devastating fires, epidemics, contributions, requisitions, robberies and field devastations. All these disasters were caused mainly by war and military activities. Marches of soldiers and quartering of troops greatly contributed to the situation and were usually associated with the need of maintaining the soldiers. The requisitions of food, alcohol, cattle, horses and poultry were particularly burdensome for the people. The greatest economic devastation as regards the resources of the starosty and its people was caused by monetary contributions, usually several times higher than the financial capacity of the town and its inhabitants. This work focuses on damages to the starosty caused by the royal cavalry. According to the literature, it is clear that the behavior of the troops in Tyszowce Starosty was not different from the behavior of soldiers in other areas of Poland. It must be admitted that the reprehensible behavior of the army was influenced by many conditions, from the recruitment of people from backgrounds often involving conflict with law, as well as foreigners, to the accommodation system under which the soldiers were forced to supply themselves “on their own.”
Zimno, the seat of the Uniate parish of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, dates back to 1388. Originally, this tiny country village belonged to the Duchy of Belz, which was incorporated into the administrative structure of Poland as the Belz Voivodeship in 1462. After the first partition of Polish – Lithuanian Commonwealth, this land was annexed by the Habsburg Empire, then it became part of the Duchy of Warsaw and following the joint resolutions of the Congress of Vienna it was given to Russia. Such location meant that this land was the area of influences of two dioceses of Chelm, both Eastern Orthodox and Latin, therefore, its dwellers were both Eastern Orthodox (then Uniates) and Roman Catholic as well. The parish established here was an Eastern Orthodox parish, which, after the Union of Brest, became a Uniate parish. The parish constituted a one-village community which administratively belonged to the Deanery of Tyszowce. It functioned this way until the end of the eighteenth century, i.e. the first partition, when this land was annexed by the Habsburg Austria. Due to the Josephine administrative reform imposed by the Habsburg Austria, the parish in Zimno was liquidated and incorporated into the St. Michael the Archangel Uniate parish in Zerniki, while the church in Zimno was demoted to the rank of a branch church. The parish functioned that way until the liquidation of the Union of Brest.
Artykuł przedstawia rys historyczny funkcjonowania miasta Tomaszów Lubelski jako siedziby jednostki administracyjnej. Na wstępie przedstawiono okoliczności, w których Tomaszów po raz pierwszy stał się siedzibą władz administracyjnych, tj. okręgu, i dalsze funkcjonowanie miasta jako siedziby cyrkułu i powiatu. Opisano także, kiedy miasto traciło status siedziby władz i poddano analizie przyczyny tego zjawiska. W miarę możliwości przedstawiono struktury poszczególnych urzędów i odtworzono ich obsadę. W związku z tym, że powiat tomaszowski czterokrotnie w swoich dziejach położony był na rubieży państwa, omówiono jego rolę w systemie obrony granic państwowych. Wymieniono także jednostki wojskowe chroniące granicy, stacjonujące zarówno w mieście, jak i na terenie powiatu.

The village of Szarowola is located in the district of Tomaszów Lubelski, in the northern part of the poviat of Tomaszów, in the province of Lublin. It was founded in 1579 in the land of the village of Rogóźno, in the place called Porebrody, by the Orthodox priest Kunat. In the Old Polish period, it was part of the district and proviat of Bełz. After the fist partition of Poland it was in the Habsburg Monarchy, in the Napoleonic period in the Duchy of Warsaw, and after the Congress of Vienna in the Polish Kingdom, which was dependant on Russia. Originally, in that village there was an orthodox parish, and after the proclamation of the Union of Brest, a Uniate one. As an independent church unit, it survived until the end of the eighteenth century, when it was relegated by the Austrian authorities to the affiliate Uniate church and included in the parish of Łosiniec, where it functioned until the liquidation of the union. During the first period of its existence the parish of Szarowola organizationally was part of the deanery of Tyszowce, and at the end of the seventeenth century part of a newly created protopope’s district of Tomaszów. Analyzing the post-visitation protocols of the Bishops of Chełm, the author presented the appearance of the parish church and its furnishings, as well as the changes taking place during the period under study. It was established that the parish priest (paroch) supported himself by cultivation of arable land and meadows, which enabled him to run a farm, and he also received money from the faithful. The clergyman had a small presbytery with outbuildings at his disposal. In addition, the article attempted to show benefices of the Orthodox Church and the changes in the period under study. Finally, the author drew attention to the number of the faithful and priests working in the parish.

Obecnie, wieś Szarowola położona jest w gminie Tomaszów Lubelski, w północnej części powiatu tomaszowskiego, w województwie lubelskim. Lokowana została w 1579 r. na gruntach wsi Rogóźna, w miejscu zwanym Porebrody, przez popa Kunata. W okresie staropolskim administracyjnie związana była z powiatem i województwem bełskim. Po I rozbiorze Polski znalazła się w monarchii Habsburgów, w okresie napoleońskim w Księstwie Warszawskim, a po Kongresie Wiedeńskim w zależnym od Rosji Królestwie Polskim. Pierwotnie funkcjonowała tam parafia prawosławna, a po zawarciu unii brzeskiej, unicka. Jako samodzielna jednostka kościelna przetrwała do końca XVIII wieku, kiedy została przez władze austriackie zdegradowana do miana cerkwi filialnej i włączona do parafii w Łosińcu, w której funkcjonowała do likwidacji unii. Przez pierwszy okres funkcjonowania parafia w Szarowoli organizacyjnie przynależna była do dekanatu tyszowieckiego, a pod koniec XVII w. do nowoutworzonej protopopi tomaszowskiej. Analizując protokoły powizytacyjne biskupów chełmskich, przedstawiono wygląd świątyni parafialnej i jej wyposażenie, a także zmiany jakie zachodziły w tym zakresie w badanym okresie. Ustalono, ze parochowi do utrzymania służyły grunty orne i łąki, dzięki którym prowadził gospodarstwo, a ponadto różnorodne opłaty od wiernych. Duchowny miał do swojej dyspozycji niewielką plebanię wraz z zabudowaniami gospodarczymi. W miarę możliwości określono beneficjum cerkiewne i pokazano zachodzące w nim zmiany w badanym okresie. Na koniec zwrócono uwagę na liczbę wiernych oraz odtworzono liczbę duszpasterzy pracujących w tej parafii.
