Transcriber's Notes:     
* indicates that no occupation was given.
? indicates that letters were illegible.  Unfortunately the edge of the
  manifest with the first names was not microfilmed and there are large
  smudges blocking the names of the first two passengers and passengers
  twelve through sixteen.
Passenger 9 could have the last name of Crow.
Passenger 27 may have a middle or first initial of G but it is not clear. 
  Also, the occupation looks like "Groar" which may be grower.
My apologies for the missing information but this film is in very bad
condition.
