Notes:
1. We may wish to break these documents into strict chronological order. (A chronology would be helpful.)
2. [Square brackets] used for dubious characters. Some figures will need to be checked against other sources.
3. Notes about formatting, etc. in {curley brackets.}
4. Some of the Registers have a notation "A. L." and "A. M.", which I believe is Acting Lieutenant/Major/Midshipman? A footnote for those would be helpful.
5. When the ship name is in "quotes" I've left it unitalicized. Fixable if we need it changed.
5. The Register is rather "free" with the spelling of names. This link toOfficers of the Continental and U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. is a second check on spelling.
