Is the following of any use to you? We purchased the book for its metrical psalms (the book is no longer in our possession).

The family notes on these pages are taken from a bible/prayerbook which also contains a set of metrical psalms by Sternhold and Hopkins. The book is approx 10" x8" x 4" thk; the bible section is dated 1786; the Book of Common Prayer 1789.
3) I suspect that much,if not all of the earlier material was written at one sitting rather than as the events occurred.
4) Italicised events are in an obviously different hand to the rest of the document.
5) An illegible letter is indicated by *
6) Where a letter or letters may have been lost at the beginning or end of a line,this is indicated by /.
7) The line breaks are in their original places.
