The Civil Service Commission published this annual list of all persons who had obtained certificates of qualification for appointment in the various public departments.

Candidates whose names are preceded by a dagger obtained appointments as the result of competition. Those whose names are preceded by an asterisk obtained honorary additions to their certificates either for proficiency in extra subjects chosen by themselves, or for marked proficiency in the prescribed subjects. This list covers the period from 21 May 1855 (the date of the original Order in Council) to 31 December 1857.SHOEMACK. Cost: £4.00. | Sample scan, click to enlarge
