There are a number of other index entries which have no page reference, and which do not appear in the text with these spellings: Anderson, Erik A.; Björtuft, Ragnild; Björtuft, Thorgrim O.; Blegeberg, Gunder H.; Gulberg, Arne; Halvorson, Tallev; Hoyme, Christoffer T.; Lee, Ole Aslak; Olson, Borre; Thorgrimson, Jacob; Tollefsrude, Halgrim L.; Ramlo, Tarald; Sanden, Embrigt

The entry for “Hallan” refers us to “Ove C. Johnson”, for which there is no page number, and no obvious mention in the text under either name.

The surname “[Sane]” in the index is an error and refers to the name “Saue”. It has been corrected.

Proper names are sometimes inconsistent, especially between the text and footnotes. The ae ligature is variously spelled ‘ae’ or ‘ei’. Unless there are many instances of a given spelling, both are retained (e.g., “Spelleman” vs. “Spellemand”). The letter ö sometimes is printed without the diaeresis as ‘o’. Where the preponderance of instances of a given name are correct, the offender has been corrected. In the Registry in Chapter XXXVII, the surnames for Peder Amund Egdetvedt and Colbein Torkildsen Edgetvedt differ. The spelling of the former, based on other texts, would seem to be correct, but both are retained.

Inconsistencies in punctuation, especially in chapter titles, have been resolved without further mention.
