The above table is based upon information supplied to Lloyd's Registry by the Registrar General of Shipping.

 * As no actual returns are available for the gross tonnages for the years from 1860 to 1879 inclusive (only net tonnages having been recorded), the gross for these years are only approximate, and are based on the relation of gross tonnage for the years 1883 and 1900.
