Transcriber's Notes:    
 
The use of an * indicates an ommission or error made by the original 
recorder.

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

There are no births or deaths recorded for this voyage, so that column 
has been omitted.
 
Under the column for occupations, I believe "Mcht" stands for Merchant.

The following abbreviations for names are present:
     Ant   probably for Anthony or Antonio
     Chs   probably for Charles
     Geo   probably for George
     Jas   probably for James
     Jos   probably for Joseph or Josephine   
     Wm    probably for William

Passenger numbers have been added for ease in referencing.

12     Jos. L. Stev?ins-Second vowel of last name could be an "e" or an "i".
35     H.A. Cowper-In the column for Country to which..., the original entry 
       "Great Britain" is crossed over and "England" written above it.
62     A?. Toneti- Second letter in first name is unclear, could be an "m". 
64     Piedad Bello is listed as male, but Piedad is a woman's name,  
       this could be an error by the original recorder.
70-74  Three passengers are listed as Siegrist and two as Seigrist, this
       could be an error by the original recorder.   
79     J. Mor?sca- Second vowel of last name could be an "a" or an "o".
