Transcriber's notes
From different ink used the version of the name "Gula" has been Re-submitted - this annotation being indicated in another name book.
Unable to determine the initials to the alteration to the name "Lang Geo of the Head".
Probable misspelling in the Authorities of the name "Lauranson" - likely to be "Laurenceson".
