Transcriber's 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.

* There were two different men, Haynes and Parker, listed as Master.  On the 
  manifest, the word "is" was crossed out and "was" written in, indicating 
  that Parker was at one time the Master.

* Town names as found.

Passenger numbers have been added for aid in referencing.

1-2 Cadi?: could have been an s or t missing.
3 Allar?: ink blot over name.
4 Jatou?: probably ended in s, possibly z.
5-7 Derbas, Gilly, Patissier: no other names there.  Patissier means baker, so 
  his real name may not even have been listed here.
