Hello, I hesitate to bring this up, but I was doing a bit of work for a one-name study and I noticed that some of the handwritten early 1860 indices have instances where the original indexer decided, for a few pages, to enter all the letter b's in the volume numbers as capital B's. All of the other letters are small (5a, 5c, 6a) and, on most of the pages, the b's are small b's. Perhaps a new recruit was used to index these pages, or perhaps the indexer found that a capital B was easier to write than a small b. Who knows? 1) To the match logic, is Plymouth 5b the same as Plymouth 5B? 2) Is 5B (capital B) even a valid volume? 3) (I tremble to raise the next point!<g>) Could this possibly be another exception to the 'type EXACTLY what you see' rule?
