Notes

  • 1. In the transcription of the Poll Book the modern spelling of place names has been added in brackets "()" to many of the entries so that a search will find them.
  • 2. The notation [sic] means as printed. Some entries have [sic "alternative spelling"] and these are believed to be the same entries (but showing the different spelling) as printed by R. Bacon in their poll book published for the same election.

Blofield Hundred is followed in the Poll book by Brothercross Hundred.
