Plan 48/4 -- Trace 1 -- Parish of Holywood

Transcriber's notes

There are initials JBJ below the first and third entries in the Orthography and [R.S. Cap. R. E.] (if the first initial is R then perhaps [Richard Warren Stewart Captain Royal Engineers]) after the second entry. There are also initials(?) in the List of Names - Won?

Townhead - Authority - 'Authority?' seems to have been written over a name against Upper Glengaber - [A Maxwell Esqr.] There is also some faint/erased? writing that is probably associated with this entry beginning 'Capt [Captain] Stotherd --'

Check Burnside - Descriptive Remarks - 'and barn' assumed to be scored out, although these words could be written on top of the (weak) score marks
