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, therefore this coloumn was eliminated.

8:       the name could be Mrs. Amalia Solaning Cordova.
14:      Age is questionable as much of the number was not evident due to an ink blot.

17 - 20: the last name could be Banaid.
17 & 18: the first name could be Jno for John.
