How to read this map

Connections join located entries in chronological stages; other recorded places stay in the text. Dashed connections pass intervening stages without a map position. They do not document a travel route or continuous service.

Entries within the same AH year are not ordered. Stages with more than one located locality remain unconnected; each source place stays visible.

4 stops kept as text without a verified locality point. No provincial capital is substituted.

1 entry without a resolved year

These entries remain outside the dated sequence. Their position in the life cannot be established from the recorded year field.

Gregorian spans accompany recorded AH years; they are year labels, not exact date conversions. Ages are calculated from AH year labels. Missing amounts remain unrecorded; zero remains zero.

Points show amounts attached to dated career entries, including labelled continuing-service and reconstructed years. Separate rates within a year remain separate; the points do not measure annual receipts or total earnings.

Open a year for every recorded appointment and amount. Entries within a year can describe separate posts or pay changes; gaps remain open.
