10 The y in the previous line (Mary) obscures this name, 
   but I believe it is Wm [William]. 
28 The y in the previous line (Kelly) obscures the third letter.
48 The y in the previous line (Mary) obscures the letters, 
   but I believe the name is Cath [Catharine].
73, 74 Both passengers definitely have the same name.
86 Rielly transcribed as written; possibly it should be Reilly.
136, 141 Nelly or Nell is sometimes a nickname for Eleanor (various spellings)
177 May be Marian; the fourth letter looks very much like an r but is obscured 
    by the y (Biddy) in the previous line.
213 Francis (with an i) transcribed as written. The usual female spelling 
    is Frances, but this may not be an error; My [Scots] g-g-aunt was
    Francis Jane.
231 Grahan transcribed as written, but it may be the clerk's error for Graham.
