Transcriber's Notes:
* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder
not the transcriber or is used to call your attention to additional
information in the transcriber's notes below.
? The ? marks indicate letters or words that cannot be read due to the
quality of the original document.
^ The caret indicates the letter following is raised or superscripted.
* The original manifest numbered the Cabin Passengers from 1 to 11.
Then Steerage Passengers began with number 1 again. This formatter
has changed the numbering sequence to continue with number 12 for the
first Steerage Passenger, etc. for ease in following Transcriber's Notes.
* All passengers listed the intended destination as Baltimore.
Therefore this column was omitted.
* The column Died on Voyage listed no deaths. Therefore this column
was omitted.
* The accommodation column was omitted since only the first eleven
passengers were in the Cabin section. The rest were in Steerage.
* The column "transient or in transit" was used by the recorder to list
the final destination of each passenger.
