Transcriber's  Notes:

*  The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original
   recorder.

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

*  Sworn to signature appears to be 'A W'.  Surname may begin with 'Cr'?i 'b'
   or 'l' ??

*  No passengers died on the voyage, all passengers traveled on the 'Poop', and
   all passengers intended to become inhabitants of the USA, so these three 
   columns have been eliminated.


Passenger Notes:

# 1 - ? may be an 'e'.
#12 - Surname may begin with 'Gr' - the lines are very faint, and the next 2
      letter could be 'b' or 'l'.  Her age is in the 'month' column, but her
      surname ran into the 'year' column so she could be either 10 mos. or
      10 yrs.  She may be part of the Gallaer family but the 'u' appears to be
      a 'u' unless the top of the letter is not filled in and is an 'a'.
#16 - No surname was indicated but she is probably the wife of passenger 15.
#17 - First letter may be a 'C' or a 'P'.
#18 - Second letter appears to be either an 'a' or an 'o'.  Her occupation is
      shown as wife, but the occupation of Passenger #19 (a male) is also shown
     (both using ditto marks) as 'wife'.
#21 - First letter of surname may be an 'A' or possibly a 'U'; ?? may be 'ee'
      or a 'u'.
