Transcriber's Notes:
? = Approximate number of letters that are unreadable.
* = Attention to this Transcribers List.
** = Special Attention noted.
The passenger numbers were added by subscriber for ease in locating.
The numbers at the end of some passengers seem to be ticket numbers. The first person
in any group was the only one with a number.
All Passengers were located 'Aft' And 'Permanent' Residents except for Cattlemen, who
had no entry in those columns.
The original transcriber was very sloppy with his handwriting. It is difficult to tell
the difference between a 'J' and a 'T'. Also an 'S' and a 'G'. Also at the end of a
word an 'a', an 'n' and an 's' all look almost the same.
Probable Abbreviations:
Lab^r = Laborer; Pedler = Peddler; Jas. = James; Chas. = Charles; Geo. = George;
Wm = William; Rob. = Robert; Eliz^th = Elizabeth; Jos. = Joseph; Thos. = Thomas;
Mich. = Michael
Passenger Notes:
18 to 46 - No info on Baggage, Location or Residence
32 to 43 (except for 36 and 41) were listed as 'No Aboard' and had a line drawn through
their names. Probably these passengers were 'Not' aboard
36 - A check mark was over the age making the second numeral unreadable.
44 - There is no first name given
46 - Listed as a 'Stowaway'.
60, 141 - A piece of tape was over the name, making it dark and very hard to read
62 - In 'Native Country' - Russia was scratched out and England written over the top.
64 - First name is fairly clear as 'Bogl.' No clue what it stands for.
67, 71, 72, 110, 111, 116, 169, 179, 180 - In the 'Age' Column there is a lower case 'a'.
No explanation.
107 - Name is either 'Bad' or Bar'
134 - 167 - Most were listed as a 'Pedler'. Ditto marks were used with both male & female.
159 - Name is Fairly clear as 'Dn'. No clue what it stands for.
161 - There was no name given and entire row had a dark line drawn through it.
192 - Name is fairly clear as 'Lub.'. No clue what it stands for.
206 - Sex was listed as 'M' due to ditto marks. It seems like an error.
