Notes
A published roster compiled from the muster rolls, independent of the family's discharge certificate and in agreement on unit, period, transfer and discharge. It gives 20 March for enrolment; the certificate gives 27 March (equal tier; the certificate kept). "Westman" is the same misreading as on the certificate. The principal he replaced is not named.
