Transcriber's notes

A modern hand has written 24/1.

Unusual surnames have been confirmed when possible, by reference to Black *The Surnames of Scotland* (for Scottish names) and googling genealogical websites (for other names). When I couldn't identify a name as a form of a known name I've put it in brackets, and sometimes made suggestions or comments in the notes. It wasn't always possible to confirm place-names, so as long as they're fairly legible they're transcribed as they appear, and only put in brackets if they're partly illegible or the pen strokes are open to more than one interpretation. Some of the less predictable spelling variations of names are clarified in the notes.
