The description of the parish has not been transcribed because it is similiar to that in White's Directories for 1845 and 1883.

These are the names in the text that are not included in the list of residents and tradespeople, below:

         Burroughes Rev. J.
         Mills      John Remington, Esq., M.P.
         Nelson     Rev. John
