Transcriptions contributed by Colin Greenstreet

Transcription conventions

  1. Transcribe as you see the text, using original spelling
  2. Reproduce upper and lower case as written
  3. Expand contractions. No need to use square brackets as you expand the contracted word.
  4. Write shillings for s and pence for d. Use a "£" sign before numeral, otherwise "pound" or "pounds"
  5. Put a square bracket around a word which is doubtful. Use capital "X" for each unknown letter in a word. Put a "?" at the start of the doubtful word in square brackets. As in [?AndrXX] or [?Andro].
  6. For weights and measures, which are often abbreviated, think "hundredweight" (112 pounds), "stones" (14 pounds), "pounds", "ounces" (16 ounces in a pound); "barrels", "butts", "hogsheads"; "gallons" (1 gallon = 4 quarts), "quarts" (1 quart = 2 pints), pints"; "ells" (measure of cloth). For more background on C17th weights and measures browse the MarineLives weights and measures glossary
  7. For ordinal and cardinal numbers, very occasionally the roman as opposed to arab system is used

DON'T insert the amounts of money recorded in the account books if on the RH side of the page. Colin is sorting out most efficient way to enter tabular data in the wiki. Until then, concentrate on the words.

Transcription tips
Think laterally. Andrew Hardie's spelling in his account book in in HCA 30/636/3 is particularly unusual.

Colin (a half Scot) is convinced Hardie is a Scot, but has no proof, other than the intriguing fact that Hardie dictated his will, whilst sick and living in the "Scot's house" in Middleburg, after the Abraham had arrived there from Barbados.
