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.

?  Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
   condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.

^  Indicates letters are omitted and the following letter is superscripted.

All passengers on pages 1 and 2 are Steerage passengers. 
Cabin passengers can be found on page 3.

The passengers on this list were not numbered, this was done by the transcriber 
for ease of reading.  

Even though the total for Steerage passengers says 529 on the manifest, the 
transcriber counted 528.

Lab or Labr  probably stands for labourer, Ch for child, Spin for spinster, 
Ift or Inft for Infant, Mat could stand for Matron.  

272: Although Sarah is a Female name, tick marks show Male, Lab, Ireland.
276: The last 3 letters of the first name look like v.
279: The age could be 24 or 27.
281: The last letter of the first name could possibly be a.
286: 6 - 1 is written behind the name, also 20 in the coloumn that shows 
     where on the ship the passenger is staying.
287: The first number in the age looks like a 9 but could be a very sloppy 2,
     then second number looks like a sloppy 6.
288: 5 - 4 is written behind the name, also 9 in the coloumn that shows where
     on the ship the passenger is staying.
289: The age could be 17 or 19.
290: 3 - 3 is written behind the age.
292: 1 - 6 is written behind the age.
293: 11 - 11 is written behind the age, also 22 in the coloumn that shows where
     on the ship the passenger is staying.
321: Mat probably stands for matron, it looks like she might be the mother of #320.
322: It looks like the last name could be M^cMann, but what looks like the second n
     could also just be a fancy ending to the first n.
332: 2 - 12 is written behind the age, 4 in front of the age.
335: The film is very faint here, all letters look like v, the last three letters
     could be rro or rrs.
338: 9 is written in front of the age, 4 - 5 behind the age.
343: 7 - 9 is written at the end of the row.
344: 11 - 24 is written at the end of the row.
348: Margt could be Margaret.
351: Geo could be short for Georg or it could be his first name.
367: The last name could be Gott which would be the correct spelling, the last
     letter is too faint to read, but it looks like there is another letter.
389: 15 is written in front of the age, 7 – 8 behind the age.
391: $ is behind the name, 4 -4 behind the age.
393: 22 – 22 is written behind the age, 44 is written at the end of the row.
403: the u in the first name is u Umlaut.
409: the age could be 36 or 30, the last digit could be either one.
438: 10 is written in front of the age, 9 – 1 behind.
441: 6 is writtenin front of the age, 1 – 5 behind the age.
471 & 472: 1 – 2 is written behind the age in between the two ages, therefore 
     pertaining to both people.
488: The last digit of the age is either a 0 or a 6, therefore the age could be 26.
494: 13 has been written before the age, 9 – 4 behind the age.
497: The last letter of the first name looks like i but does not have the dot.
     Since the captain's i's and e's often are very similar the name could be
     Emili or Emile.
