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 below.
* The ? indicates letters or words that cannot be read due to the quality of the original document.
  See transcriber's notes.
* Two separate manifests were provided.  Names were in the same order on both, with none added or
  deleted.  Information that was different (spelling, ages, etc) is listed under passenger notes.
  The largest difference was that the Remarks column was not used on the one, and the other had
  baggage lists.
* A film cover page lists the date as 8 June 1836, but the original clearly says 8 July 1836.
* The Master's statement is found at the end of the manifest, but has been moved to the beginning
  to conform with the ISTG format.
* In the sworn statement, the year has been as 18(blank).  The year given for the ship is from
  the original cover page.
* Occupation of Samester is unknown.  Several women are listed as this, and it is clearly a
  different word than Spinster.
* Occupation of Spinster is given to adult women; could be wives, widows, or sisters.

  4     Second list shows her as Gubbin.
 11     Age possibly 26 according to other list which is not clear on age.
 13     Second list shows him as Michael.
