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.
? The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, 
  due to quality of original document.
    
* The Age column calls for years and months; however, no months were 
  listed in the manifest, therefore this column has been omitted.
* The last column in the manifest was for "Died on the Voyage".  Nobody 
  is recorded as having died, therefore this column has been omitted.
* Passenger numbers were added to aid in referencing.

 7 The seventh passenger's (Tho?. Dashwood's) first name may be an 
   abbreviation for Thomas.
31 The last passenger's (Tho?. Keigh's) first name appears to be an 
   abbreviation for Thomas.
