Transcriber's Notes:

* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not
  the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
  in the transcriber's notes.

* All passengers are from the same country.
* No occupation for the remaining passengers.

Passenger numbers have been added for ease in referencing.

1  I cannot read the first 2 or 3 letters, but it seems to me, to be Ireland.
