Transcriber's notes

For Linda Geo, under 'Authorities for Spelling', the ditto has been stroked through. I believe this is likely in error, and the Authorities for Spelling should read - Mr. T. B. Reid Poor Inspector Sourin; Mr. James Donaldson, Egilshay; Mr. James Goudie, Teacher, Egilshay.
For Marlow, under 'Authorities for Spelling', I believe the ditto refers to: Mr. T. B. Reid Poor Inspector Sourin; Mr. James Donaldson, Egilshay; Mr. James Goudie, Teacher, Egilshay, and have therefore been recorded as such.
