Transcriber's Notes: 

There is a possibility that the middle initial of the ship name is W.  Of the voyages seen 
so far, twice the initial was M and 3 times it was W.

  1-2 surname could be Maison or Marson or Masson.
  3 there seems to be some sort of tape over the original, which is blocking the beginning 
     of the name.
  4 same as 3.
  8 surname looks like Garvens or Gasvens or Garsens.
 13 surname looks like Bausqust or Bausquet or Bausquat or similar.
 14 surname looks like Falyuan or Falzuan or Falguan.
 18 surname could be Bembeck or Zembeck perhaps.
 19 surname looks like Chin or Chiu or Chirc or similar.
 20 surname looks like 8 except for the 4th letter, looks like Garrens or similar in this case. 
 21 if he was with 11-12, his origin is marked differently.
 22 surname something like Barresa or Bairera.  Origin column was partially written with 
     the occupation, with the word Espagne in the origin column.
 23 first name could be Maria or Alicia or Aleanora but overwritten, 
     same for surname, though she seems to be with #22: ditto marks in the occupation column.
