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 use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to quality
of the original document.
^ The use of a ^ indicates that the letter/letters following are superscripted.
: The use of a : may indicate an abbreviated word.

It is possible that an unknown individual, at a date after the arrival of this ship,
attempted to save a fading manifest by writing over the original. Further research should
be done to confirm any findings.
The manifest did not include psgr #s; they have been added by the transcriber.
All ditto marks on the original manifest have been replaced with the actual words indicated.
