Notes

  • All shorthand contractions in the document have been reproduced as written.
  • Martha Crook (aged 60-64yrs) had what looked like a "tick" or "N" in the last (undisplayed here) column which indicates born in S(cotland), I(reland),or F(oreign) Parts. This appears to be the same Martha CROOK aged 70yrs in 1851 census and born in Breccles?
  • In other rate documents the following alternative spellings have been seen which appear to refer to the same people/places:-
    Balam/Baalam, Hunt/Thuet, Ludkin/Lutkin.
  • Thomas HUNT married Elizabeth BAILY 2/Jan/1804 at Illington and these may be one or more of the people listed above.
  • The abbreviations are "Do" = "Ditto", "F. S." = "Female Servant", "Ind" = "Independent".
  • The following are noted from the Illington Parish Registers of burials and may be the same people listed above:-
    Entry 44 - John LUTKIN buried aged 81 years on 22/May/1844
    Entry 47 - Mary LUDKIN buried aged 84 years on 22/April/1845
    Entry 46 - Thomas HUNT buried aged 79 years on 21/June/1846
    Entry 61 - Elizabeth HUNT buried aged 75 years on 31/Oct/1852.
