Transcriber’s notes :
- An apostrophe indicates that the letter or letters following were raised, or written in superscript, in the original text. ↩︎
- Before the passage of the Calendar (New Style) Act 1750 en.wikipedia.org, which took effect in 1752, the calendar year ran from 25th March to 24th March. Thus, though this deed was memorialized on 21st Jan. 1747, the memorial was executed on 21st Jan. 1748, New Style. In later years, 1752ff, the year in which this document was dated would have been written 1747/48. ↩︎
