Transcriber's notes
There are initials JBJ below each of the entries in the Orthography and also initials(?) in the List of Names - Won?check Cowhill - Descriptive Remarks - 2nd line - 'an' may have been scored out, but I don't see why.
check Bellfield - Descriptive Remarks - 2nd word - 'house' assumed rather than 'home', although the curvature of the last down stroke makes it look more like an 'm' than 'us'
