Transcriber's Notes:

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

?  The use of a ? represents a letter in a passengers name that was illegible 
   because of the condition of the original document. 

*  In the copying of this manifest it was noticed that there was a lack of
   recording of the sex in the sex column for passengers 194-244. This is
   possibly due to different people recording. The sex column has been
   left without entry for these passengers (except for passengers 227-228
   who were marked as "M") to replicate the original document.

*  The same is true for some occupations such as Merchant and Female were 
   sometimes recorded Mrchnt and Fmale.

*  There was a death column on this manifest, due to the fact that no deaths 
   were recorded on this manifest the transcriber has eliminated that column.

  10 - Patk McGio?m, this letter could be either an s or an e.
  22 - Jas Dar?ell, this letter could be an A or a K.
  26 - Ha?iry Corlett, this letter could possibly be a v.
  40 - Robt Hughes, the first number in the age was really illegible.
 129 - Jn? ?lerse, the last letter in the first name could be an o or s and the
       first letter in the last name could be an A but the line across the 
       middle of an A is missing
 132 - Philip Sexton, the second number in his age is just not visible, I think
       from fading.   
 185 - a Pisan?, this last last I think could be an s or an o
 192 - ? Andreasen, this letter could possibly be a v
