Transcriber's Notes:
* The original lister did not follow the column headings provided on the printed form;
he added his own and what is missing is the sex of the passenger. He listed the Cabin
Passengers first, but did not number these. The transcriber has moved these ten
unnumbered passengers to the end of the document; thus Passengers #1 to 154 are Deck Passengers
and #155 to 164 are Cabin Passengers.
* The Remarks column is used for two purposes:
1. To record births (Passenger 42 and 99 gave birth)
2. To records deaths (Passenger 48, 110 and 126 died).
? A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the quality of the document.
Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what this letter/letters may be.
* An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which further explains the entry.
