Transcriber's Notes:
* Please note this ship has 3 list. The first I can clearly see it saying 
  "List 1", The third says "List 3" and it  has the same names as List 1 but 
  there are alteration which I will point out.  There are only 9 passengers 
  for List 1 and 3.
* The last list does not have a "List 2" but it may have not been copied 
  as it seems to be cut off at the top of the page, and the names are     
  different. So you will see two sets of name.
* In "List 1" in the surname column TAX is stamped from 1 to 7 with X in     
  8 and 9. The months are abbreviated.
* In "List 3" TAX has gone. The christian name for passenger 5 has been 
  changed to John.(not George).
* The christian name for passenger 7 looks more like Steward ( Sterwood).
* Where in the date column there is only a 07 I would think this is the year 
  1907.
? represents a word I can't work out.
* represents the number 6 with a line under it and it is higher and to the 
  right of the 3.
# represents something else after the 20 I don't know what.
