Transcriber's Notes:
1. The total number of passengers is incorrect. The manifest says 89
but if you care to count there are 97. Note: passenger numbers added
to aid with referencing.
2. ? mean that I can not read what the letters are.
3. In the case of the name ?ooley (psgrs 32-39) there is an ink blot over the fist
letter and the following names are ditto marks so there was no help
there.
4. There are "A" in place of ages for some of the passengers. I am told
it was a mark of respect, not wishing to inquire the age of a person.
"A" stood for adult.
5. Thomas M??? (psgr 63) could be Mine or Mu. It is anyone's guess.
6. Jacob Ragst?? (psgr 44) could be ao or aa.
7. Jas Bl??lson (psgr 21). This name could be spelled Blirlson but it is not clear
enough to state positively.
8. The Official's name before whom the Captain swore to this list is
totaly unreadable.
9. There were no deaths noted on this manifest so that column was eliminated.
