Although the column referred to "Country" of which they intend to become inhabitants, the city New Orleans was listed throughout the passenger list. #3 and #51 Domesticy perhaps could be domesticite meaning domestic staff #4 could be either Palloc or Palloe #15 in the Occupation column, "do" meaning "same as above", probably referring to Taylor Gown #32 Age could be either 24 or 28 years #38 and #39 could have same last name - Guillat or Gaittat #40 and #41 could decipher very little of this word #49 Transcribed exactly as written - including parenthesis
