Transcriber's Notes:
? unreadable signature at the end of the captain's manifest.
* the column for country in which they intend to become inhabitants is written
as United States of America for all passengers, so the column was omitted on
the list above.
* the column for births and deaths had no entries, so was omitted from this
transcription.
* the column for cabin location was entered on the first page of each sheet, or
where the location changed; entered on this sheet at the passenger where the
location was listed, so the column is eliminated in the transcription.
