Transcriber's Notes:
The top line says In the cabins but does not show exactly who.
Across the columns of sex, occupation, The country to which they severally belong and on the same line as the third passenger is written "In the houses on Deck" and on same line as the fifth passenger says "In the Steerage" with each one of these { under them but facing downwards.
? indicates a word or letters that could not be read.
# Please note the occupations column does not specify an individual occupation for each passenger as it just notes all the way along this column Mecanics (correct spelling on list), Labours & Farmers.
* after Cath (number 6 passenger ) as I presume it should say Catherine.
* indicates Passenger No. 23 surname not readable and No. 24 & 25's have the same surnames.
