Transcriber's notes
Dear Moderator
Please can you check p151, 153, 154, 155 and 157 as I am relatively new to transcription.
I am also unsure what your instruction to transcribe [Page] xxx refers to? Please advise. Thank you.
Dear Marchbank 70
I have checked your pages and made the necessary correction/additions. Have a close look to see where I've made the changes.
[Page] xx - the page number is in the corner. We add [Page] in square brackets because we are adding our interpretation. You can see from your pages how its done.
As previously mentioned you need to look in the FAQs for the surveyors name and rank etc. you should not need to leave it as ... We have given all the help we can on these to assist you.
Your main reading of the text is good, its just getting to grips with our formatting that you need to watch out for.
Don't add punctuation to the authorities if its not on the original
Watch out for capital letters all through the desc sentences, they weren't as good at using capitals only at the beginning of the sentence as we are.
Also be careful in the headers where is has Ph - you need to show that and the expansion - not just expand it. Ph [Parish]
If you would like to try out another couple of pages and ask for them to be checked on the forum one of the mods will pick it up.
Regards
Nora

This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Berwick, which is in the south east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
