Transcriber's Notes:

 A ? indicates letters or words that cannot be read due to the quality of the
 original document, and is clarified in the Transcriber's Notes.

 Port of Minatitlan, according to other transcribed lists, is in Mexico.

 First letter of Captain's name is either S or L, same as passengers initial.


 1  First initial is either S or L. They are made very similarly at this time, and
    the manifest gives nothing to compare it to.  The Captain's first initial and
    the passenger's first initial are the same letter.
