Transcriber's notes

The abbreviation R.A. [Royal Artillery], following the name Captain Ramsey [sic], is confirmed from the transcription of 1851 census for Hutton.
Difficulty in deciphering some words on this page due to fold and faint writing - shown in [ ]. "Tweed" is a best guess, as this is where the Linn Burn flows into.

Words/letters lost in fold - passed to SP Office.
