* Most likely the captain is George Siddons Murray as he was the captain on other
voyages of this vessel.
? Use of a ? indicates a word or letter that could not be read due to quality
of original document or penmanship.
* There are no deaths listed, therefore, column has been eliminated.
* All passengers are listed as protracted sojourn, therefore, column has been
eliminated.
* Passenger # 795 First name written as Ml with the letter 'l'in super script.
Probable name - Michael. Age is too dark to be read.
* Passenger # 811 First name written as Ml with the letter'l'in super script.
Probable name - Michael.
