Thank you Greensleeves, Bookbox and goldie61 for your help!

Mary Bowes? widow has entries all down the page in various parishes. Is she the Popist recusant and Cuthbert Evans the tenant/occupier of her land or is he a Popist recusant too?

I understand it as Cuthbert being the occupier. He might have been a recusant too.
Are you certain all entries were for the same Mary Bowes?

Hi Maiden Stone,

It looks like the same Mary Bowes and she owned land in other parishes Brancepeth etc.

Durham Recusant Estates 1717-78 A-Z by surname, Cleveland FHS
https://clevelandfhs.org.uk/free-online-lists/land-records/

There's an article on "History Scotland" about the collection when it was added to FindMyPast.
"Documents relating to estates seized following Jacobite rising 1715"

The heading for Column 4, in which Cuthbert Evans appears, is Names of the Ten(an)ts & Occupyers, not Recusants. There's no implication here that Cuthbert was a recusant.

The missing word in Columns 7 and 8 is Int(erest).

I agree for Column 7, but I think Column 8 is Am[oun]t.
Researching among others:
Bartle, Bilton, Bingley, Campbell, Craven, Emmott, Harcourt, Hirst, Kellet(t), Kennedy,
Meaburn, Mennile/Meynell, Metcalf(e), Palliser, Robinson, Rutter, Shipley, Stow, Wilkinson

Yes, of course it is. I was writing on a small phone-screen, had misremembered the details, and couldn't get back to the image to check, sorry.

I guessed it might be something like that - ain't technology wonderful?  ;)

I couldn't decipher the word ending "ts" so based my answer on Goldie's transcription. (I'm blaming the experts.  ;D)
Could Mary Bowes have been related to the well-known Bowes family, ancestors of the present Queen?
