Transcriber's Notes: 
    
    These passengers were numbered by the transcriber, not on original film.
    Transcription was made from a computer scan of the manifest.
    Date pf arrival in March 1877 was over written so that is was difficult to 
    determine what it was, may have been March 11, 1877.

The arrival date of this ship is not clear. In the sequence of the NARA films, this ship 
arrived in March 1861. Ancestry has the date as March 18, 1861. The day is illegible,
the year looks like 1877, not 1861. March is fairly clear, the year is nearly illegible.
