Transcriber's Notes:     
  *No entries were made in the sex column, therefore, that column has been 
   omitted.  All passengers were listed as belonging to Great Britain, and 
   intending to become inhabitants of the United States, therefore, those 
   columns have been omitted.  No passengers died on the voyage, therefore, 
   that column has been omitted.

   The passengers are not numbered on the original manifest.  The numbers 
   were added for transcription purposes.
