Londonderry, Ireland to Wilmington, Delaware
23 May 1831

DISTRICT OF WILMINGTON - PORT OF WILMINGTON
I, John Glederie, Master of the Ship Lady of the Lake of Liverpool do solemnly, sincerely and truly swear that the within list contains a just and true account of the names, age, sex, and occupation of all the Passengers taken on board the said ship previous to and since her departure from the Port of Londonderry. (Signed) John Glenderie. Taken and subscribed before me, the 23 day of May 1831. (Signed) Saml. McDowell, D. C.
LIST OF ALL THE PASSENGERS TAKEN on board the Ship Lady of the Lake, Glederie, in any foreign Port or Place and from Londonderry to Wilmington, Delaware.
Columns represent: name, age, occupation, to what country belonging, country of which it is their intention to become inhabitants. Occupations were recorded for only a few of the passengers, and gender was written only for the first passenger. The last two columns were the same for all the passengers so those two columns and the gender column will be eliminated here.
