Due to the nature of the data i.e. an article may relate to one, two or more subjects, you may need to search around for what you are looking for - on the other hand I may not have found it, or, if introduced prior 1907, it is unlikely to have been published in the Gazette. Don't forget that with the keys "Control + F" you can do a word search.

� NB Prize Money is usually split into a number of factors which include head money in respect of the starting numbers of crew of enemy vessel to which a sum of money will be paid as a Prize Bounty - usually in the region of about �5 each during WWI.
Prize money in respect of the sale of captured vessels, etc. was paid into the "Naval Prize Fund" and was not paid until after the end of the war when it was paid to those who were qualified - see "Regulating the Distribution of Prize Money to the Fleet" for the rules regarding entitlement ! See articles on "Naval Prize Fund" for details regarding when payment was made and to whom.
N.B. Most of the articles include standard phrases which add nothing to the data - in many instances I've discarded or abbreviated these phrases or attempted to reduce their impact by using a lighter font so the articles should, hopefully, be easier to read ? So the meat of the subject should be in this standard font. In addition, many dates have been spelt out in full and in many cases I've reduced them to a more modern format eg "from bearing date the fifth July, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-nine," to "of 5 July, 1889,".
