From Cienfuegos July 2 83
* There is no deaths on this voyage so this column has been eliminated.
Passenger Notes:
# 2 - there are bracket that list all the baggage under the male name.
# 4 - The end of the surname is not real clear as the age is written almost
over it, making it hard to read. It does not appear to be above or
below the line. It is a letter that stays at the same height.
# 7 - In the surname the second letter is a tall letter like a 't', 'l', or
even maybe an 'h'
#17 - The first letter of the name is written is such a way that I have never
seen. It resembles a " C" and a "K' made together. When asking for help
other seem to think this was an "I" making her name Isabel. In the
surname it looks like Pizi. Being the de is in front of the Pizi it would
be de Pizi meaning he was from "de Pizi". I could be incorrect on this
though. This could also be "de Pegs".
#20 - All the lower case letter are above the line. None over half way the top
of the line.
#33 - Am not sure what this profession is maybe a Jewler, or Joiner
#30 - I know this is name does not start with a 'J' as the one just below does
and is very plain. I believe it starts with a 'G' but the next letter
looks like 'm' or 'n'or even a 'u'. As all these letters are above the
line and none over half way.
#36, #37 - it is possible that this name is spelled Puitz
#38 - All of the baggage for 36, 37, are included in #38. The surname is not
real clear. It looks like "Manusa" or "Mamusa".
#44 - I have no idea what this occupation is. Possiably a dealer in Cocanuts.
#48 - This second letter in the surname could be an "l" or a "t". It is tall
letters but don't see the "t" crossed as is other "t" in this manifest.
It does not go below the line. Also for the occupation it is not clear
what the first letter is. It does not go below the line and is not a
tall letter. It could be that it is merchant.
