Transcriber's Notes:

#3: Age could be 32.
#4: ? could be o or a.
#9: First ? could be "n" "r" or "v".  Second ? might be an "r" or possibly is not a letter
    at all.
#15/16:  ? could be "n" or "r".
#19: 1st ? could be "a" or "o"; second could be another "n", "r" or "v."
#21: Blot over name, very hard to read.  Could be "Pampson" or even "Thompson"   
#22. 1st ? could be "n" or "r" or possibly "v."  Name after "servant to" looks like it 
     begins with the letter "D." Rest of name is blotted over.
#23: ? could be "a" or "s."

Where three dashes (---) appear under "Occupation", this is exactly what was on the original list.
