Transcriber's notes:
The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to
quality of original document.
In the column headings, the original list had been damaged along the fold
line before filming, I believe the column should be headed Location of
Compartment or Space Occupied.
There were no deaths during the voyage so the final column "date and manner
of death" has been omitted.
2 t appears above the line
13 through 38 original page is damaged or missing along column listing
baggage
19 age could be 21 or 31, looks more like 21
21 k appears above the line
25 could be l or s
27 could be e, i or r
42 and 43 could be t or s
50 page is damaged at bottom edge (last entry on page), leading digit is
unreadable
52 could be e, i or c
63 looks like 3 points, could be m, iu without dot over i, eu or something
else
62 through 66, page is damaged/missing along fold line, number given is
partially visible only
67 through 81, page is missing along fold line, number is gone
68 first name possibly ends with oeng, last name looks like lower case
hobrkus
82 possibly ss or ff, it's overwritten by bottom loop of z in passenger 81
98 ink is smudged, might be 17 or 7
100 ink is smudged, might be R or C
105 could be Dottiller or D. Miller
111 through 133 page is missing where damaged along fold, numbers of pieces
baggage are missing
126 ink was already smeared, page was damaged along foldline, someone
attempted to repair and tape filmed as dark blot further degrading
legibility of rest of surname and age
128 gap between C and h appears in original
132 age is definitely shown as only 4 years even though preceeding Wilsen
child shows 4 years 3 months
139 middle initial could be H or W
145 age is 10 months
151 through 177, page is damaged and bits missing along foldline, parts
missing include location of compartment and number of pieces of baggage
170 through 177, right side of page is missing from mid column of location
of compartment to edge of page
175 hole in page where d of Scotland should be
176 name was on foldline, page was damaged and repaired but most of name
is gone except for those parts of the letters falling below normal
line of writing, such as the bottom of the gg's; bit of page is missing
from age column
177 surname shows ditto marks from passenger 176
182 s appears above line
Capt. .George Moodie was the first caption of the famous tea clipper "Cutty Sark". Later, he worked for the Stateline and sailed the Atlantic Ocean for 11 years.
In 1891 he retired from the sea and eight years later settled in the Wemyss, Fife, Scotland area where he was born. He spent about ten years in Methil, Fife, Scotland and then retired to MacDuff House in Auchtermuchty, Fife and died at the age of 95.
His three sons also had a love for the sea. One son, James, worked for Pennsylvania Railway Line Steamers, and was transferred to New York. Another son, George worked for the Methil Docks in the Fife area. and his third son (my grandfather) Alexander was a ship master and engineer and sailed to many world ports during his career. He also had four daughters. He had eleven grandchildren. How many descendants there are now I don't know, having just started my family search. The son, James who died in a accident in New York is the one I am looking for.
