Transcriber's notes
The original transcription table Name BRUNTLEY KNOWS was changed to BRUNTLEY KNOWE. This also conforms to the entry in the volume index.RAILING RIGG
- a transcription table entry was created for this Name, map reference 013 from the volume index.
- I entered RIGG as seen, however, RIG appears to be the standard adopted in this volume - many Rigg entries have an Examiner's comment regarding this.
