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 letter that could not be read, due to the
quality of original document.
The use of a ^ indicates letters are omitted and the following letter is superscripted.
The column; "The country to which they severally belong" has been eliminated
because only one passenger, Passenger #2, John Fose(Fosc)was not from Ireland.
He was from England.
In the Occupation Column can be seen, "To her Husband", To Her Mother", etc.
This, I believe, means that the Husband or Mother is already in the US and
the passenger was now going to join them. Locations where family members are
in the US are given.
Timo is short for Timothy and Marv is probably Maurice.
2 Last name is either Fosc or Fose This is the only passenger in this
section that came from England, not Ireland.
Reviewer's note: the last name could be Fox.
15 First name looks like Marv but perhaps is an abbreviation for Maurice
Last name has only four letters after the McG. It's either McGoran or
McGovan.
Reviewer's note: the last name could be McGowan.
23 Last letter of last name looks like a "d" but is probably an "l" as
in Carroll.
36 Last name looks like Cananghty.
37-41 The last name of these five passengers ends in either
"h" or "t".
Reviewer's note: the 2nd letter could be i or e, the captain does not dot the
i very often. The last letter of the last name seems to be t. It is questionable
if there is a letter between the l and the m. The name therefore could be
Killmet, Kellmet, Killimet Kellimet.
50 McMahan or McMahon
62 Mooday or Moody
63 First name looks like Marv but probably short for Maurice.
78 Reviewer's note: the last name could be Dincan.
114 Reviewer's note: Tho^s probably stands for Thomas.
118 Male named Ivan listed as a Female.
124 Looks like Brenny---Possibly Browning
126 First letter of last name is either "F' or "T"
128 Reviewer's note: the last name could be Kahne or Kohne.
138 Reviewer's note: the last name could be Flanagan.
