Transcriber's notes

There are no columns for the entries for the Lands and Rent, per Cess Book, 1748 so I have added them into the respective Original Roll columns with the applicable column title in square brackets. I have used a separate line if the column was already populated (Carried over/Brought forward), rather than using the next 'free' column.

Annotations in green ink and a sum in pencil have not been transcribed.
