Transcribers 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.

? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to quality of    
  original document.    

There were no births or deaths on this passage, therefore the birth/death    
 column has been eliminated.

Manifest scribe restarted passenger numbering with 1 at the change in Space
 Occupied; to aid with referencing, the Cabin passengers have been numbered
 sequentially.    
    
  6 - Looks like Walklen    
  8 - Jno believed to be an abbrieviation for Jonathan    
 22 - Looks like Owens    
 31 - Looks like V Cahone or Malone    
 32 - Looks like Kierman Keerman or Merman    
 40 - Between di and Till - "Ph" was crossed out    
 40 - Looks like Tillips    
 48-51-Could still be Candia, although the C doesn't resemble the C in the other
      Candia's above. Other possibility is Landia      
 89 - Looks like Schneider or Schweider - letter in question is more consistant
      with the letter "n"          
100 - Could be Bern    
102 - superscript "n" after Cath - believed to indicate abbreviation for Catherine      
118 - Because of the possibility that the surname was first, both names were placed
      on the surname list        
129 - Looks like Loughton    
146 - an "X" marked to the left of the passenger number    
156 - Looks like Mans or Maus    
171 - Looks like Dr.
National Archives and Records Administration, Film M237, Reel 416, List 148.
