Transcriber's Notes:

There were no births or deaths on this passage.

The country to which all passengers intend to become inhabitants is the USA,
so this column was eliminated.

The use of a * indicates an omission, or an error made bythe original recorder.

The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to the
quality of the original document.

* The burthen in tons of the ship was not given.
