to call your attention to additional information in

? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined
due to the condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
^ A ^ followed by a letter indicates that the letter was superscripted.

There was quite a bit of damage to the manifest. Missing information due to damage
is indicated by a series of dots. One dot does not represent one missing letter.
