Transcriber's Notes:

 An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of
 the manifest or something in the Transcriber Notes to which the reader should
 refer.

 A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed 
 definitely.

 A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is
 superscripted.

 The transcriber numbered the passengers consecutively 1-288, even though they
 are not numbered in the original manifest.

 The recorder of the manifest abbreviates most given names by writing only the
 first few letters of the name.  Other times he abbreviates given names by
 writing the first few letters of the name, then skipping letters and then
 writing the final letter as superscripted.  In these cases, the transcribers
 use the symbol (^) to indicate that the following letter is superscripted,
 i.e., Cha^s for Charles, Ja^s for James, Joh^a for Johanna, W^m for William,
 etc.

 The recorder lists the Occupation of every adult male passenger as "Lab" for
 (Labourer). The transcriber believes this to be a time saving convenience for
 the recorder as it is highly unlikely that among the 288 passengers there is
 not even a single "Farmer", "Mechanic" or other occupation common to
 immigrants.

 The recorder often varies the spelling of countries (e.g., Luxembourg,
 Luxemburg and Luxemberg).  The transcription contains the spelling as it is
 recorded in the manifest.
