If alpha and beta are countable ordinals such that beta eq 0, denote by tilde{T}_{alpha,beta} the completion of $c_{00}$ with respect to the implicitly defined norm ||x|| = max{||x||_{c_{0}}, 1/2 sup sum_{i=1}^{j}||E_{i}x||}, where the supremum is taken over all finite subsets E_{1},...,E_{j} of $mathbb{N}$ such that $E_{1}<...<E_{j}$ and {min E_{1},...,min E_{j}} in S_beta. It is shown that the Bourgain $ell^{1}$-index of tilde{T}_{alpha,beta} is omega^{alpha+beta.omega}. In particular, if alpha =omega^{alpha_{1}}. m_{1}+...+omega^{alpha_{n}}. m_{n} in Cantor normal form and alpha_{n} is not a limit ordinal, then there exists a Banach space whose ell^{1}-index is omega^{alpha}.
