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.
? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
Since the passengers were all intending to settle in the United States, that column
has been omitted. Also all passengers on this page occupied the Steerage section so
that column has been omitted.
The recorder of this manifest listed the surname for the head of the family only,
then used ditto marks for the remaining family members. The formatter has changed
all family members to include the surname.
The recorder also used dittos throughout for the Occupation, Country to which they
belonged, etc. The formatter has filled in those dittos for easier researching.
There were no births or deaths on this passage.
Abbreviations : Spinr - Spinster meaning any single female
Labr - Laborer
Inft - Infant
M - Male

Personal Information
Passenger #269, Joseph Buckley, age 20, laborer from England is my Great Grandfather.
Passenger #622, Wm Buckley , age 34, mechanic from the US might be a relative.
Joseph settled in Philadelphia where William was living. Joseph was from Oldham,
Lancashire, England. His parents were James Buckley and Sallie Leach. By the late
1890's Joseph had migrated to Illinois where he married my Great Grandmother, Cora Green,
in Hancock County 1893. On the 1900 census Joseph was working and traveling with the
railroad probably as a cook, since his occupation in Philadelphia was a baker. He died
in Minnesota in late 1900 from Typhoid. Joseph and Cora had two children: Percy Buckley
and Grace Buckley, my Grandmother.
