Notes:

[1]"N. B. The votes put down in the above list from Berlin for Schermerhorn are returned for Cornelius I. Schremihorn. .... The Ballots in the town of Berlin having Mr. Schermerhorns name correctly spelled, his title to a seat cannot be invalidated by the gross carelessness of the Inspectors who made the return forwarded to the Clerk's Office."
