  The focus of this article is a re-count of Richard Carrington's original
sunspot observations from his book drawings (Carrington,1863) by an observer
from the World data Center-SILSO network, Thomas H. Teague(UK). This modern
recount will enable the use of Carrington's observations in the re-computation
of the entire Sunspot Number series in a way Carrington's original counts
(Casas and Vaquero,2014) did not. here we present comparison studies of the new
recounted series with contemporary observations, new data extracted from the
Journals of the Zurich Observatory and other sources of Carrington's own
observations and conclude that Carrington's group counting is very close to the
modern way of counting while his method for counting individual spots lags
significantly behind modern counts. We also test the quality and robustness of
the new re-count with methods developed in Mathieu et al.,2019.
