Transcriber's Notes:
*An asterisk is used to call your attention to additional information in the notes below.
*Two columns have been eliminated from this transcription because they were not used on this
particular area of the manifest. These columns are, Native Country, and Date and Cause of
Death.
*The original manifest has an error in numbering beginning with passenger 791. The
numbering has been corrected on this transcription.
*Question marks represent letters or numbers that are unclear due to either the condition of
the manifest or the handwriting of the list maker. Where possible, further information
about these letters or numbers is given in these transcriber's notes.
*An apostrophe indicates that the letter following is a superscript.
672 - given name unreadable because none of the letters between the D and Y are formed
clearly, likely due to too much ink on the pen. Daisy could be a possiblity.
673 - top of the first numeral in the age is obliterated by a hole or a large ink smear on the
manifest. Age is 32 or 52.
674 - surname may be Anchis.

775,776,777 - surname could be Ranth.
782,783 - surname could be Greenword.
788,789 - there is a gap between the second s and the next letter, therefore it is possible
that the letter is not an i, but an a or an e. Surname could be Cassels or Cassals.
791 - surname is so faint it is virtually unreadable. It may begin Com??? or Conn?? It appears as
if there may be a line through the name, age, sex, calling and baggage of this passenger.
792 - surname for this passenger is represented by 'do' indicating that it is the same
as the passenger preceding it.
793 - surname is too faint to read.

864 - surnamecould be Pinthiun, Pirthiem, Pinthium, P??thi??
865 - surname could be Coldteck,Caldtick or Coldtick.
870 - the last letter of the surname appears to be an f. It is possible that what seems
to be the lower part of an f is actually an ink smear. Surname could be Lardizabul.
872 - given name could be Kinmasa or Koremasa. The letters are poorly formed and difficult
to decipher. Special thanks to Dr. Kyoko Selden of Cornell University for giving of her
time and expertise in an attempt to accurately transcribe the name of this passenger.
