Explanation:
The 11,736 individual records of annual payments to clerksemployed by the East India Company included on this website were created as a part of a comprehensive longitudinal study of the careers and economic fortunes of the East India Company and its employees. Completed in 1999 and led by Dr H. M. Boot, the full dataset (including information for the period 1820 to 1850) and project description is available through the UK Data Archive:
British East India Company: Salaries Paid to 'Clerks', 1760-1850
The dataset posted on London Lives encompasses the first sixty years of the dataset, up to 31 December 1819, and is available for keyword and name searches only. If you wish to undertake a statistical analysis of this material you can access the full dataset in a range of formats through the http://www.data-archive.ac.uk.

The period covered by this dataset includes that of the Company's greatest power. Following its establishment of a monopoly of trade with Bengal in 1757, and for the rest of the eighteenth century, the Company essentially governed India, acting as an independent state in all but name. Its power and authority were gradually transferred to the British government, though it continued to act as an independent company through the first half of the nineteenth century. In 1801, the company employed over 3,670 people as part of its home establishment, centred on East India House in Leadenhall Street, but also including a wide range of port and warehouse facilities.
The category of clerk, which forms the basis for this dataset, includes a high proportion of the Company's home employees, ranging from low servants to senior managers with executive authority. In the words of the Dr Boot:
Users of the dataset should take care to become familiar with the system of recruiting, classifying, and rewarding the staff that operated in the East India Company between 1760 and 1850 before attempting to use or to interpret material in the dataset.
