Arabic numerals refer to serial numbers and not to pages; Roman numbers refer to pages in the Introduction. Two (or more) persons of the same name are grouped together unless there is ready evidence to separate them. Where more than eighteen mentions of an elder brother of Trinity House occur in the Transactions, only the first and last references are given together with the total number of mentions (e.g. seventy-five mentions, 52–410). Entries concerning cargoes, occupations, ordnance and ships are grouped together under those headings. Places in or near London have been grouped under London.
