Transcriber's Notes:

* The use of an * indicates an omission or error make by the original 
  recorder.
* The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due 
  to quality of original document.

* The Age column calls for years and months; however, no months were 
  listed in the manifest, therefore this column
  has been omitted.

* The last column in the manifest was for "Died on the Voyage".  Nobody
  is recorded as having died, therefore this
  column has been omitted.

* Mich. A F??mont could be: Freemont, Feemont, or Feomont.  Mich. could
  be: Michael.
* Wm Jones could be: William Jones.
* Ms could be Missouri.
