Transcriber's notes:

* The original passenger list was not numbered, but the transcriber
  has numbered the passengers for ease of identification.
* The column entitled DIED ON THE VOYAGE has no entries, so has been
  omitted by the transcriber.
* Passenger 5.  There is a capital letter "G" followed by a straight
  line in the occupation column.
* Passengers 13 to 25.  Brackets enclose all these passengers in the
  columns entitled "The Country to which they severally belong" and
* "The Country in which they intend to become inhabitants", and a
  single entry, "Gt Britain", is made in each column to include all
  of these passengers.
* Passenger 24.  Could be Burton.
