Notes

1. The printed Poll Book contained many christian names starting with the letter "I" such as "Ia.", "Iames", "Iohn", "Ios." etc. These have been changed respectively to "Ja.", "James", "John", "Jos." etc.
2. The christian name "Ios." could be "Joseph", "Josiah", "Joshua" etc.?
3. All the Hundreds and Candidates together with their abbreviations are to be found on the main 1714 Poll Book page.
4. In the transcription of the Poll Book the modern spelling of place names has been added in brackets "()" to many of the entries so that a search will find them.
