Transcriber's Notes
There is no captain's statement nor captain's name attached to this manifest.
The following columns had identical entries for all passengers and so were
not included in the table:

By whom was passage paid?=himself
Whether ever in Prison, Almshouse or supported by Charity=no
Whether a Polygamist=no
Whether under contract to labor in the US=no

Letters that are illegible or difficult to interpret are replaced by ?.
12 has been to San Fsco May '93. His health is recorded as poor.

16 first name looks like James but there are one too many loops in what
would be the "m." It could be Jannes, Jaunes, Janues, or James.
20 middle name is difficult to read. It seems to have the symbol that
indicates an abreviation. He has been to San Fsco 1891
21 has been to Portland 1891
22 has been to San Fsco 1892
23 has been to San Fsco Feb '93
