Jodlowa is a small town situated at the foot of the Wiszowa Mountain (409 meters above sea level) on a stream which is a tributary on the right side of the Wisloka River. Its elevation is 256 meters above sea level, and it is located at 49 degrees 52' N, 21 degreees 18' E, in the powiat of Pilzno. The town consists of two settlements: Jodlowa Gorna and JodIowa DoIna, each of which has a one-class public school. There are 3,282 Roman Catholics and 280 Jewish inhabitants there. The town has a Roman Catholic parish, a post office, a communal loan society with capital of 2,891 zlotys, and a fund for the needy. The major estate (owned by F. Kollat) comprises 582 morgs of farmland, 58 of meadows and orchards, 37 of pastures, and 167 of forests. The minor estates comprise 3,937 morgs of land under cultivation, 311 of meadows and orchards, 316 of pastures, and 872 of forests. The people of Jodlowa engage in farming and trading. There is a market fair every other Tuesday, and in addition there are 24 annual fairs. We have two founding charters referring to Jodlowa. The first, issued by King Kazimierz the Great in Krakow "on the Tuesday after the feast of the Apostles Peter and Paul, 1353," grants "to Kunad the son of Alpodrik scultori [?]" 100 Franconian lans to establish a settlement under Magdeburg law, and grants him the wojtostwo and income from the yet-to-be-founded "JodIowa Gora" (see: Morawski, Sad. 1, 234). The second document, signed by the same king one day after the feast of St. Michael in 1359, allows two brothers, Jedrzej and Mikolaj, to found a village of Jodlowa under Magdeburg law in the forests of the district of Biecz, and to claim 80 Franconian lans up to the Wisloka River for this purpose. The parish belonged to the Diocese of Krakow and was part of the property of the bishops of Krakow. The year of its founding is unknown. The present wooden church dates back to 1670. Apart from the church, there is a chapel at the cemetery where services are held. At present, the parish belongs to the Diocese of Przemysl and, with the village of Dembowa, has 3,800 Roman Catholics and 280 Jews. In 1770, the Jodlowa starostwo, in the province of Krakow, powiat of Biecz, consisted of the village of Jodlowa along with its wojtostwo and appurtenances. As of 1765 it belonged to the starosta of Wolbrom, Franciszek Dembifiski, and his wife Urszula nee Morsztyn. After it was seized by the Austrian government, on the basis of the cameral decree of 16 February 1815 and a written agreement dated 38 [sic] August 1815, it was given to Aleksander Debole for the villages of Kniazioluka, Oboziska, Nowosielica and the settlement of Debolow, which were annexed to the Dolina government-owned estate. [Mac.-Vol. Iff, pp. 594-595]. [Additional information in the supplemental volume 15]: Jodlowa, a town in Pilzno powiat. They say it was originally the property of the bishops of Krakow, then a ducal property, returned to the bishops in 1354 by King Kazimierz the Great, and then later became property of the crown. It was apparently the bishops who founded the parish there, and they had certainly erected the church by the 15th century. In 1581 there were two villages, Jodlowa niemiecka [German Jodlowa"] and Jodlowa polska ["Polish Jodlowa"]. Strzezowski paid taxes on them. Jodlowa niemiecka was leased by Jost Romer, and had 27 peasant lans, 2 homesteads with land, 22 without land, 12 peasants with cattle, 32 without, 14 craftsmen, and 1 lan belonging to the soltys. Jodlowa polska had 10 peasant tans, 9 homesteads without land, 16 peasants without cattle, and 6 craftsmen. Even then it evidently was a trading center.
