SS Moravian
I, John Graham, Master of the British Steam-ship "Moravian" do solemnly, sincerely and truly swear that the the following List of Manifest, subscribed by me, and now delivered by me to the Collector of the Customs of the Collection district of Baltimore contains a true list of all the passengers taken on board the said vessel at Liverpool from which port said vessel has now arrived; and that on said list is truly designated the age, the sex, and the occupation of each of said Passengers, the part of the vessel occupied by each during the passage, the country to which each belongs, and also the country of which it is intended by each to become an inhabitant and that said List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said passengers who have died on said voyage, and the names and ages of those who died.
Sworn to this 8th May 1873 So Help Me God, John Graham
Before me David W. Gray, Dep. Col.
List of Manifest of all the Passengers taken on board the British Steam-ship Moravian whereof John Graham is Master, from Liverpool to Baltimore, burthen 1571 tons.
Columns represent: passenger name, age, gender, occupation, and country of origin. The column for "intended habitation" has been omitted because all (except passengers numbered 542, 556 & 557 who intended to return to their native countries) were listed with the United States of America as their final destination.

Transcriber's Notes:
A question mark (?) indicates indecipherable material.
An asterisk (*) indicates further information in these footnotes.
A caret (^) indicates letters left out of an abbreviated name and the
letters following it appear in superscript.
The handwriting of the person making this list is fairly small, letters
are often squeezed together and final letters of names often trail off.
Also, frequent misspellings occur, as well as mis-identifications as to
gender and nationality. One questions the writer was ill, illiterate,
ignorant, inebriated or all of the above. The listing of nationalities
is most often inconsistent with the types of surnames found with them.
Passenger Notes:
5-6 Surname may be Bruns
7 Surname may be Lorenzen or Lorensen.
13 Surname looks like it may be Simsonnen or Simonsen or something akin
to that.
16-18 No surnames listed--presumably it should be Christian as in the entry
for passenger #15 or else the surname for #16 is Kairon and that for
#17 is Me?er (Meter?). Entry for number 18 lists the given name Martin
followed by ditto marks indicating the same surname as for #16.
18 Occupation listed for this child--then crossed off.
31 Information doesn't jibe here. Given name seems to be Franz,
a male name, but then gender is given as female and listed as
a spinster--is this then an infant or an adult. "Inft. is
clearly written in the age column.
35-36 Occupation ship painter is listed for both entries--must have
been precocious children!
38 Surname looks like Klans but may be Klaus.
49 Surname looks like Konseczn??c.
50-51 Surname looks like Fr?yonskii.
57 Note states: died 7 May cause convulsions.
60 Note states: died 7 May cause pneumonia.
95-96 These two passengers presumably belong to the family listed above
them, but the name is spelled differently--it may also be Baltke.
Consequently, passengers numbered 89-94 could be Balke or Baltke
also.
100 Surname may be Johanneson.
165 Name should perhaps be Madsen.
236 Note states: died 6 May cause pneumonia.
255 Name is Christian..plus some letters that may or may not be part
of the surname.
263 Age looks like it may be 15.
271 Name looks something like Lyoud, Lyovd, or Lyouvel.
