[1], [4] This column is split into three usually, “Parish, Town, and County where Born,” “Age when entered in this Ship”, and “If his first Entry in the Service, to be so stated; if not, the Name of his last Ship, as part of complement, and date of discharge as nearly as it can be assertained; and if a Marine, his Division and No. of Company, and date of completion of 7 Years service; if a Supernummerary, by whose authority borne, and for what purpose.”

[2], [5], [10], [16] Also says: “N.B. The Character as above to be copied into all Pay Books.”

[3], [7], [12], [18] Subscription text was added in ink. The original text is not crossed out in the original but it’s assumed that all monetary values in this column are towards the subscription.

[6], [11], [17] Subscription text was added in ink. The column fills two purposes: all monetary values are towards the subscription, all textual ones are about the Nature of Certificate.

[8], [13], [19] Despite the column’s original text not being crossed out and the added text saying “& River Pay”, it is likely that only River Pay is listed in this column.

[9] Removed: “and if a Marine, his Division and No. of Company, and date of completion of 7 Years service; if a Supernummerary, by whose authority borne, and for what purpose.” Also removed is the officer text: “If an Officer, the date of his Commission or Warrant; in whose Vacancy; what Ship received from; or if from Half-Pay”.

[14] His name is shortened to “Theop^s” in the original muster, Theophilus is currently a guess as to the full version.

[15] Removed: “If his first Entry in the Service, to be so stated; if not, the Name of his last Ship, as part of complement, and date of discharge as nearly as it can be assertained;” and “if a Supernummerary, by whose authority borne, and for what purpose.” Also removed is the officer text: “If an Officer, the date of his Commission or Warrant; in whose Vacancy; what Ship received from; or if from Half-Pay”.
