Transcriber's Notes:
*The original Quarterly list had columns for Month, Day,
 Vessel's Name, Master, and Where From. These columns
 have been incorporated into the title information. 
 The remaining ships have been transcribed individually.
*None died on voyage, therefore the column is omitted.
? Denotes illegible character on original.
*Much of this list is illegible due to tape that microfilmed black.
*Names, it appears there were 5 passengers.
*Passengers 3-5, country of origin is probably France.
