Transcriber's Notes:
The column, "Date and Cause of Death" was elminated from this transcription as there
were no deaths on this passage.
The original lister did not number the passengers; this was done by the transcriber.
He made several mistakes on the listing of names with a sex and/or occupation that
appear to be incorrect. Could he have missed passengers? Since there was no
recapitulation at the end, we cannot be certain. He did, however, write "Finis" at
the end of the document.
A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the
quality of the document. Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's
Notes of what this letter/letters may be.
An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which
further explains the entry.
A circumflex (^) is sometimes used to indicate missing letters in a name. The original
lister showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.
The original lister used the abbreviation Spt to indicate a Spinster. A Carp^r is
a Carpenter. He also abbreviated names. He used Jno to indicate John and Sar,
which is probably Sarah. Magt seems to be Margaret and Bgt is the abbreviation used
for Bridget. Joh is probably Johanna, or possibly John.
At times there was a checkmark after a passenger's name. Although one cannot be certain
what this signifies, in other manifests this checkmark has been used to denote a
passenger who is ill.
293 There is a checkmark after this name.
333 There is a checkmark after this name.
334 There seems to be a checkmark after this name, but has been slashed through.
337 Surname: Morsley, Moosley, Morsby, Moosby.
363 Surname: Nythcol, Nytheol.
376 There is a checkmark after this name.
382 This given name seems to be male, yet the passenger is listed as a Female, Wife.
409 There is a checkmark after this name.
410 This passenger has a checkmark after the name.
418 This passenger is listed as a male, but has the name Maria. There is also a
checkmark after the surname.
435 Perhaps this name is a shortening of Annabella?
441 This passenger is listed as a Male, Miner, but has a distinctly feminine name.
It appears the original lister made a mistake with his dittoes.
456 This passenger is listed as a Male, Miner, but has what appears to be a
feminine name.
460 This name does not seem to be correct. Could it be that the name could be Eva
Humph? Humph is a Welsh name. To this point, the lister has been listing the
given name first, then the surname. This passenger also has a checkmark after
the name.
464 This name is a masculine name, but is listed as Female, Wife. Perhaps the
husband was also on board and the lister missed a name.
466 This passenger's name appears to be a feminine one, but is listed as a Male,
Miner.
468 This passenger appears to have a feminine name, yet is listed as a Male, Miner.
501 There is a checkmark after this name.
519 Surname: Daly, Paly.
552 This passenger, obviously having a feminine name, is listed as a Male, Laborer.
