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.

?  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.

*  Names were transcribed as seen regardless of spelling.

*  None died during the voyage, all passengers intended to stay in Canada, therefore these
   coloumns were eliminated.

12:      the last name could be Sheny.	
18:      the last name could be Else.
19:      Due to a tear in the manifest, the first name cannot be read and only part of the last 
         name. Surname may be Lobbon.
19 - 22: a tear in the manifest for passenger 19 makes it impossible to read most of the country. 
         Ditto marks show that the other passengers come from the same country.
