Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed 
  definitely.

  An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the 
  manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer.

  A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.

  The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates a passenger's Occupation, such as 
  "Mech" for Mechanic, "Labr" for Laborer, "Spin" for Spinster, "Mat" for Matron, 
  "Chd" for Child, and "Inft" for Infant.

  The entry "United States" in the native country and destination country columns
  is shortened to "U. States" for formatting reasons.  "Male" and "Female" in the
  Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason.
