Transcriber's notes

Hi Lostinthemess,

Pages are coming along nicely, just a few wee things I can still see here.

Do should be fully transcribed so that it is searchable
And first names are expanded without the abbreviation. So its just Archibald etc, no need for brackets.
If you could please expand the s and d to s. [shillings] d. [pennies]
Due to the amount of info in the top line I have split it over two lines. We sometimes dont have enough character spaces available to put it all into one. But that is the only reason we would ever split it up.

It takes a bit of time to get used to all our correct formats and standards, but it will just 'click'

Kind Regards
Nora
