Notes

1. "North Runcton" is actually near Kings Lynn so this looks like an error for "Runton"?
2. 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.
3. "(-)" indicates who was voted for but this is included in count for original page.
4. Lukin/Luken is the spelling in the 1788 census of Felbrigg.

Places with no voters

The following places :-
METTON and THORPE MARKET
had no one who lived there and voted because of a freehold in the same place.

Note that many people still voted based on a freehold held elsewhere. An example of this is Stow Bardolph with no entries but with the following :-

Francis Rising is under Hockering because of his freehold there but lives in Stow Bardolph.
William Barton a Clerk (Clergyman) is under Wiggenhall because of his freehold there but lives in Stow Bardolph.

North Erpingham Hundred is followed in the Poll book by South Erpingham Hundred.
