---------- Reopened for Editing 2024-05-15 18:36:48 ---------- Reopened for Editing 2024-05-15 20:52:55 Reopening this. Still needs more editing/correcting. Table is not aligning properly--pipes are misplaced in various locations, and they need to be properly spaced (three spaces between each) For now, the following corrections have been made to the text: "Frame" dwelling, not "Framed" "Jno"-short for Jonathan Pritchett Lemuel Fidderman Accomac Botitourt (misspelling of Botetourt) Dawls Swamp The correct way to transcribe the Roman numeral three shown is III, rather than II II II
