Transcriber’s Note:
Footnotes were renumbered sequentially and were moved to the end of the chapter. Footnotes [27], [56] and [57] have multiple anchors. A few anchors are positioned at the beginning of the sentence.
Words may have multiple spelling variations or inconsistent hyphenation in the text. Obsolete and alternative spellings were left unchanged. Misspelled words were corrected. Where spelling varies between an index entry and the text of the book, the index entry was adjusted to match the text. Obvious printing errors, such as backwards, upside down, or missing letters and punctuation, were corrected. Use of italics was made consistent in various lists. Final stops missing at the end of sentences and abbreviations were added.
Columns and rows were reversed for two tables on page [293]. When a table does not display completely on small handheld devices, tapping the screen may present the entire table in miniature.
The [pedigree chart] in Chapter XIV was converted to a descendant format to fit electronic screens. Spouses are indented between the male's name and their children. An image of the original chart was added.
There may be a digit not printed in Appendix X, last column for [entry of Mercery, &c.]
Mimosa, _Acacia_ was changed to [Mimosa, Albizia].
