Transcriber's Notes:
* Indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
? Indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to quality of original document.
* Note that the ship is documented as April 28,1855 but the manifest says 1857.
1. ????* It appears the name John was written in and another name written over it. That name looks like Thos.
19. * The occupation as I read it is turner, it does not look like the other farmers.
24 * The word is written GROON but I think it should be GROOM.
84 * The age appears to be 36 but could be 26.
108 * The word plumer is spelled that way on the manifest.
115. * The word sigar is spelled that way on the manifest.
135. * This last name could be Ranks or Ranles.
136. * The letters in this name, Naoins, are very easy to read. Perhaps the writer misspelled the name.
146. * This name appears to be Haser, but could be Haver or Harer.
152. * The age appears to be 56, but could be 26 or 36.
153. * The last name could be Zugschrist, Zugschurt or other similar letters.
174. ??? Could be Tar or Von.
175. * The last name appears to be Loeden, but the first letter could be an F or L.
176. * The sex is listed but too light to read.
182. * The sex is listed as both M & F.
191. * The Th is correct in between the first and last name.
210. * This name could be Bost or Bosh or Bash, but appeared to be Bast.
261. * The last letter of this name could be an R.
Cabin Passengers
* All three the sex seems to be mistaken, but that is what is written.
