Transcriber's Notes:     

An asterisk (*) indicates an error on the part of the original recorder 
  not the transcriber and a note about it from the transcriber.
A question mark (?) indicates a letter that could not be read with 
  certainty.The penmanship in this log was classic in style and 
  exceptionally good; the contrast was outstanding.
There were no births or deaths on this passage; therefore, the 
  birth/death column has been eliminated.
Passenger numbers have been added to aid with referencing.

  7, 12 Phillip Yeoman (psgr #7) is listed as a female. Five lines later the entry for 
        Philipa Yeoman (psgr #12) is followed "2d," meaning second. Probably this name 
        should be spelled Philipa, although it's possible this Phillip is a 
        male and the 2d notation added below it is in error. There is a small 
        blotch on the paper at the end of the letter "p" on this line and 
        covering the ending upswing. However, I do not see enough room for 
        an "a" there.
 79-80  Owen, Thos. and Richard were written with a "do" or ditto for surname. 
106     Johanna Regan ?? Both numbers in this second Johanna's age were written 
        over. The first number was once clearly written as a "2" but seems to 
        be written over a "1." The second number also seems to have been written 
        twice: perhaps once as a zero and also as a "6."
110-112 John Sawton: This surname is written perfectly. However, the next entry 
        (Annorah ?awton) seems to have first been written Sawton and then the 
        "S" was written over heavily with the letter "L." And the following 
        name (Kitty Lawton) is written with the surname perfectly formed.
141     Margaret M?ui?s: I believe this is Mquins but the second character could 
        be a "g." I do not see a lowercase "c" after the "M" that begins the name.
158     T?r?s Cafferday: His given name appears to have five characters. The 
        second character looks like a "u," while the fourth character looks like 
        an "n."
