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 below.
? The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to quality of the
original document.
^ The use of a ^ indicates that the letter/letters following are superscripted.
The names and ages were written over at some time in the past, after the arrival of the ship,
in an apparent attempt to preserve the fading manifest, and these names and ages were very
difficult to read. Other information is difficult to read because of the fading. Extra research
should be undertaken to confirm findings.
The manifest scribe numbered the passengers.
All ditto marks on the original manifest have been replaced with the actual words indicated.
