Confused about Tab

I just bought some old Emmons tab and I'm confused about two things. What does "t" mean? I assume it's a knee lever, but aren't they "D" "E" "F", etc.?
Also, there are numbers below the tab....1, 2...what does this mean??

thanks,

Probably T is thumb, 1 is first finger, 2 is second finger.

On the tab you'r talking about is like some tab I sent to someone else. It reads T-thumb a-index finger and b-middle finger. The numbers (1-2-3-K) at the bottom of the tab settings are your pedals and knee leavers. I don't like this type of tab, I like the kind with the pedals on the fret and string that are to be played, but hay this is just the way I like it and I have several tabs to choose from. Hope this helps. Paul:
