Transcriber's Notes:
The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to
quality of original document.
In general, when the passenger was male, the original recorder marked the
occupation column as a labourer, even if that "labourer" was still an infant.
In the column indicating the sex of the passenger, the original recorder
also capitalized the word Male and used the lower case "f" for female. See
Passengers 133 and 134 as examples.
Passenger notes:
6 Ohaughlin could be Ohanghlin. No apostrophe evident.
7 Michl is probable abbreviation for Michael.
8,33,67,101,134 Thos is probable abbreviation for Thomas.
9,53,118,164,174 Wm is probable abbreviation for William.
23-24 Possibly McGarvin, though McGawin looks correct.
28 First name is indistinct. Possible phonetic spelling for "Fanny".
41, 119, 147 Cath is probable abbreviation for Catharine, Catherine.
42 and 43 Brun could also be Bran with an open "a". Transcriber questions
if this is a phonetic spelling for "Brown". Although likely "Marg",
first name could possibly be Mary.
44 Heoagh could be Hevagh. The "o" could be a closed "v".
57 McAvanna could be phonetic spelling for McCavannah, McCavanaugh
58,59,102,113,129,170,171 All have Jno (or Jns) which is usually an
abreviation for John, Johnathan, or Johnathon.
83 and 84 Clemints is indistinct, a series of humps between a clear
"Cle" and "ts".
Could be Clesnent. Clements. There is a dot, probably an "i".
112, 122, 125 Margt probable abbreviation for Margaret
115 Danl looks like Dan with a superscript iel run together.
146-150 Also could be Shuingn, Shuinyn, Shumgn. Humps run together.
164-166 The only Marriots on the list were these three passengers. It
seems likely they were the parents/sibling of passenger 180, Inft
Marriott (though that name had two t's).
167 Titus is usually a masculine name. The original recorder designated
"her" female and not a labourer.
175 Killy could also be Rilly. The first letter is overwritten.
