Notes

  • 1. "Ju"? written in pen - assumed to mean "Junior"?
  • 2. This looks like a typesetting error and it should be "CHILVERS"?
  • 3. "St. I. M. Land" may be "St James Marshland"?
  • 4. All the Hundreds and Candidates together with their abbreviations are to be found on the main 1734 Poll Book page.
  • 5. Burgh Parva (next to Melton Constable) church is dedicated to St Mary but is in ruins.
  • 6. Burgh St Mary near Fleggburgh had a church dedicated to St Mary but it is in ruins.
  • 7. "**" means no votes printed.
  • 8. "[]" brackets enclose a comment written in ink.
  • 9. Surname spelling varied and below are some alternatives which are to be found in the other Norfolk Poll Books which may refer to the same families :- Peapes/Peyps?, Redd/Read, Sangringham/Sandringham, Shall/Shaw

 

Places with no voters

The following places :-
    Barmer, Bawsey, Bittering Magna, Bittering Parva, Bowthorpe, Buckenham Tofts, Burgh Parva in Holt Hundred (see Note 5) and Bylaugh had no one who lived there and voted because of a freehold in the same place.

Note that many people still voted based on a freehold held elsewhere. An example of this is Whinburgh with no freehold entries but with the following :-

  • John Coleman, a Clerk (Clergyman) is under Hardingham (in Mitford Hundred) because he lives there but claims a vote because of a freehold in Whinburgh (Whinborough).

The Poll book continues with Towns and Parishes beginning with the letter C.

Towns and Parishes

The book contains the following (where "A" is Acle to Aylsham etc.):-

ABCDEFGH
IKLMNOPQ
RSTUWY  
  Outside Norfolk (By County)Uncertainties
