Transcriber's Notes:     
  #2 surname looks like Kischer; first name could be Luke or possibly Sam; 
     not sure if there are ditto marks for occupation, as Germany was 
     written there and then smudged out. 
  #4 surname possibly Clansly or Elarsly or Blansly perhaps, or some 
     variation, but there is a smudge over middle of name. 
  #5 first name could be Wm.; surname could be Calahir or Calahar.
  #6 first name could be Wm.; surname could be Kitchin or Kitchir 
     or variation.
  #7 age could be 25 or 28.
  #9 surname looks like Forrentell; country of origin is probably Ireland, 
     though slight chance it is Scotland.  First letter is very light, 
     but is more likely I.
 #10-20 country of origin was dittoed for all, referring to #9, so would be 
     Ireland if #9 is.
 #10 surname possibly Forbes.
 #11 surname looks like Synach but could possibly be Lynch.
 #12 surname could be Dunn.
 #13-16 surname looks like Lahr or Lahn or Laha or Laher.
 #14 first name seems to be Michael but does not seem to be an "l" on 
     end of name.
 #18 cannot see ditto marks for surname; uncertain if it is Barrett.
 #19 surname same as #13-16.
