Transcriber's Notes:     
  #8-10 surnames transcribed as found, but it is possible that these
     were the same family, and the surnames when recopied at some point 
     were not recorded properly.   
 #12 surname could be spelled Fliny or Fling.
 #17 perhaps ditto marks for farmer in occupation column, or a smudge.
 #26 surname looks like Key or Hey.
