Transcriber's Notes:     

There is some sort of tabulation in the column for origin.  Some numbers, 
and the words merchant, cabin, French, laborers.

  3-5 surname could be Malesfuria or Malesfusia.  Gender of child not 
     specified.  First name of 3 looks like Luizi here.
  6 surname possibly Peine or Pierre.  The word French is lightly 
     written in the origin column in this line.
  7-11 surname could be Falce or Falie.
