(10) The names on the following lists are transcribed exactly as the Spanish scribes wrote them. In parenthesis, after the scribes’ versions, appear the proper French spellings as provided by the translator. Given names were translated into Spanish whenever possible, and last names were written in Spanish as the scribes heard them. Most of the names are obvious. Others yield to shrewd guessing, but some defy all efforts to figure them out. Doubts concerning names are identified here with a question mark. “4237
