The source was Xeroxed from film #SR 4543-5 at the Maryland State Archives. Only two pages of the original record survived, but in a very damaged state making their copies exceedingly difficult to read. The abbreviations used herein, for the Hundreds are: PTWU Port Tobacco West Side Upper Part PTWL Port Tobacco West Side Lower Part PTE Port Tobacco East Side DU Durham Parish Upper Part DL Durham Parish Lower Part W&M William & Mary Parish NWU Newport West Side Upper Part NWL Newport West Side Lower Part NE Newport East Side Ben. Benedict Characters and/or words that were unreadable or uncertain are shown within square brackets and with a question mark. The five columns of numbers had headings, but the last three headings were unreadable. Column #1 was labeled "Taxables" and column #2 was labeled "Required". Column #5 label could possibly have been "surplus".] Hundred Persons Names #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 PTWU Acton Henry Senr. 7 21 ? 21 - PTWU Atchison Ann 1 3 50 - 47 PTWU Acton Henry Junr. 3 9 12 - 3 PTWU Acton John 2 6 36 - 30 PTWL Adams Francis 3 8 46 - 37 PTWL Annis William 1 3 49 - 46 PTWL Adams Benj. 1 3 3 - - PTWL Anderson Bart. 1 3 0 3 - PTE Askin Geo. 5 15 15 - - PTE Askin Vincent 4 12 34 - 22 PTE Adair A[bm.?]. 5 15 0 15 - PTE Allford Joshua 4 12 0 12 - DU Allen Will. 1 3 0 3 - DU Adams Sodwick 2 6 8 6 - DU Adams Charles 2 6 5 1 - DL Acton John 1 3 9 - - DL Allwood[?] John 1 3 24 - 21 W&M And[er?]son Ann[?] 3 9 9 - - NWU Allen Thomas 2 6 38 - 32 NWU Anderson Robt. 2 6 0 6 - NE A[xx?] Joseph 2 6 14 - 8 NE Allen [xxxxx?] 3 9 0 9 - NE Amory [xxxx?] 2 6 0 6 - Ben.
