The print copy is very difficult to read because the film was so faint. The original list is not numbered; numbers were added for transcription. * "Sware" is as this was spelled on the manifest. * The column, "Number and Names of Passengers Who have died on the voyage", contained the following information: "1 Box and Bedding" bracketed for the McGees, "1 Chest" for passenger 5, "1 Chest and Tools" for passenger 6. * The word "Philadelphia " was on the first line of "Country of which it is their intention to become inhabitants" and ditto for the all the rest of the list. * Passenger #6, surname could be "Carvan".
