Notes

1. 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.
2. "(-)" indicates who was voted for but this is included in count for original page.
3. "Wiar" is printed as "Wyard" in the other Poll Book by J.Crouse?
4. "Southwould" could be Southwood, Norfolk or even Southwold in Suffolk?

Wayland Hundred is followed in Poll book by Lynn Borough.
