"Contains information about various Europeans, '''other than the Company's servants''', accused of misconduct in India, 1766-1824, with some years missing, plus European inhabitants of Bengal, 1793-1830, Madras, 1702-1828, and Bombay, 1718-1792. Details in these latter lists may vary and may include year of arrival in India, name of vessel, nationality of wife if married, names of widows, names of single women of marriageable age, names of children, occupations, residence in India, year of return to England, place of nativity or nationality or "born at sea". In the 1750s the lists also include the names of married women but do not identify their husbands. References are also given for those shipwrecked or "taken prisoner by the French" who remained in India. Records are in excellent condition, but spelling of surnames in early records is variable".
"List of Uncovenanted Europeans employed in the Honble Company's Service under the Presidency of Fort St George with a Statement of the Allowances drawn by them as it stood on the 30th April 1820". (Refer below)
