Transcriber's Notes:
 
 * The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original 
   recorder.
 * The use of a ? indicaates a word or letters that could not be read, due 
   to quality of original document.
 * There were no deaths on this passage.  Therefore, the Number that have 
   died on the passage column has been eliminated.
 * The column headings state "county" to which they belong or to which they 
   intend to become inhabitants instead of "country".
 * Passenger numbers were added by the transcriber.
 * Captain's surname is clearly Hart.  His first name appears to be Gamaleib 
   or Gamalieb.
 * Deputy Collector's name is not decipherable.
 * Passenger #  2's given name is written "Fra" with a small letter 
   superscripted
   after the "a".  The letter looks most like an "e" or an "s".  May be an 
   abbreviation for Francesco, Francis, Francois.  Occupation smudged and not
   readable.  First letter of country to which belongs is not readable.  
   However, rest of word is clearly the end of "Germany".
 * Passenger #  3's occupation looks like either "maid" or "maiden".
 * Passenger #  8's name is either Voltyn or Vottyn.
