Transcriber's notes
The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to quality of original document.
Explanations are as follows:
The ? in the Captain's name in the beginning statement is probably an "s".
Other places where this name is written clearly show that it is an "s" written above midline.
The ? looks like a 9.
#13- looks like an extra upstroke of the pen, may be an "s".
#39- looks like "est".
#46- the last ? may be an "s"; no idea what the first letter the first ? is.
#49- first ? looks like "F"; second ? looks like "n" or "v"
#75- looks like "le" or "li"
#82- looks like "el"
#118- not sure if sex is recorded correctly or not
#124- this is a small letter, possibly an "a" or "e"
#126- this is a small letter, possibly an "e" or "o"
#144- first ? is an initial, possibly "F"; ? in surname lokks like "r" or "rs"
#147- looks like "tle"
#148- looks like "tle"
#154- this is a tall letter or an extra upstroke from the "g"
#156- these are small letters
#157- these are small letters
#161- this is a small letter, written above midline
#162, 163- these are small letters
#164- looks like an extra upstroke
#175- cannot determine if this is a tall letter or a small letter written big due to an error.
#184- it appears that the sex is incorrectly recorded
#187, 188- possibly an "e" or "i"; both are the same shape
#196- ? in age is possibly a 4
#208- first ? is similar to "J"; second ? is a small letter; third ? is tall, similar to "t"
#215- these are small letters
#228- cannot determine if one number or two, doesn't look like any other numbers on the manifest
#233, 235, 238, 248, 255, 267- looks like a small "r" written above midline with a line under the "r"
#236- first ? looks like a lower case "p"; second ? is an initial, looks like a 6
#239- looks like a lower case "p"
#243- is a 2 or a 3
#244- Looks like a "J" or "F"
#254- this is an initial, looks like an "E" with extra loops
#258- this is an initial, could possibly be an "S" with a small "r" written above midline
Re: the following numbers, the last letter in the first name is written above midline and has a line under it:
26, 57, 59, 75, 82, 101, 160, 161, 163, 174, 181, 182, 192, 194, 196, 269
There were no deaths on this voyage, therefore that column was eliminated. There were no notes of births.
