Scientific paper

In historical records, twenty four candidates of possible Kreutz sungrazing comets have been found, and their times of perihelion passage estimated. Translated original records of comets with presumed ephemerides are given. Some uncertain candidates are also presented. Although already suggested by Marsden (1967, Astron. Jahresber. 67.9133), our calculations on the motions of comets 1882 R1 and 1965 S1 confirm that the progenitor of these comets is a comet that appeared in 1106; some trials on the linkage of sungrazing comets are discussed.
