Where possible, a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what these letters may actually be. An asterisk (*) is used to refer to the Transcriber's Notes for something that is more fully explained there. ^ Indicates letters are omitted and the following letter is superscripted. The Column, "Died on Voyage" was eliminated, as there were no deaths on board during this voyage. The original lister recorded the names as given name and then surname; the transcriber has reversed this order for ease in alphabetizing. The original lister did number the list. # 41 Is the given name really Louisa? #143 Surname possibilites: Houlsten, Houhten #182 Occupation: This is not clear, but a good guess would be "Ironwrkr". #187 Surname: Hodger or Hodges #190-192 Surname: Either Govssart or Goussart.
