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 "D^o" = "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.
