ease of reading.
Lab or Labr probably stands for labourer, Ch for child, Spin for spinster,
Ift or Inft for Infant, Mcht for Merchant, Gent for Gentleman.

535: The first letter of the last name is not very clear, it could be Jouet.
539: ? - 0 and 3 is written behind the age.
540: 28 - 12 and 4 is written behind the age.
548: Since Wilhelm is a male name, this could be Wilhelmine, which is a female name.

this line to the right of it.
588: It is not clear if there is a "s" at the end of this name or if it is just a fancy end of the k,
the name therefore could possibly be Meks.

590: 7 - 10 is written behind England.
603: The first name might be Adolph, the h is definitely missing in that case.
