Therefore, those columns are also eliminated. * The original list was not numbered. I added the numbers myself, in accordance with ISTG guidelines. In the notes below, the numbers correspond to the number of those entries which contain question marks. * First name abbreviations usually have the last letter written as superscript. In such cases I have transcribed them, in accordance with ITSG guidelines, with a space before the superscript: e.g., Rich d. * ** The recorder on this list sometimes wrote the number "8" in the modern way, somewhat open at the top, with a small flourish slanted toward the right. In other cases, it is more like two zeros on top of each other. * The question marks in the introductory material before the list proper represent words which were on the edge of the page and were apparently cut off when the page was microfilmed. * The original recorder was inconsistent in recording infants. In all cases, except one, the name was not recorded. * In one case, the word "Infant" is preceded by "&" apparently meaning the infant belonged to the preceding person, so I would assume that all the infants belong to the person whose name precedes them in the list. * 13 Martin Roh?? Fourth letter appears to be an "o" but has an upward stroke that makes it resemble a "d". The fifth letter is either n or u: Rohon, Rohdu * 16 A????s Ennis Middle letters of first name are illegible, and I am not even sure how many letters there are. None of them have upward or downward strokes, however. * 34 Peter F???ly Could be Feealy or Fualy * 74, 75 Rich d McCont . Not certain if Rich d's age is 10 or 18. * 78, 79 Mich l Town?y Last name is either Townsy or Townry * 89 Cha? Collins Last letter of first name illegible. * 159 Edw d McGan? Last letter of last name could be either "g" or "y": McGang or McGany. * 191 Pat Clar? Last letter of last name either "s" or "a": Clara, Clars * 220 Pat Campbell Not sure if age is 13 or 3. * 238 Elizabeth Henry Not sure if age is 30 or 50 * 269-272 Elizabeth Troon?? Last name could be Troonie or Troonu * 279 Lir? Milner Last letter of first name illegible.
