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 transcription preserves the original spelling.

All ditto marks on the original manifest have been replaced with the actual 
words indicated.

The manifest did not include psgr #s; they have been added by the transcriber.

End of the ship's Captain's name is illegible, could be Lanahen, Lanahan, or 
Larrabee.

This ship is listed as the Sir Robert Peel on Ancestry.com.  I did some 
research and found that the Sir Robt Peel and the Sir Robert Peel are indeed 
two ships and were sailing within the same time frame...


16  2nd letter of Age illegible.
