N2 - The first dedicated catalogue of southern double stars was published in 1829 by James Dunlop. Basing our work solely on the published data, we present a modern version of the catalogue with data from GAIA DR2 and, where unavailable, data from the ASCC in the Appendix. We also compare this modern data precessed back to B1825.0 with that of Dunlop's original catalogue and estimate the accuracy of his main parameters
