Transcriber's Notes:
* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder not the transcriber,
or is used to call attention to additional information in the transcriber notes.
Question marks replace illegible information or letters.
The pages on this film are not numbered so finding a particular ship can be difficult.
However, there is a system of numbering the manifests that is a part of the National
Archives file system on Chinese persons. These numbers are included in the identification
of the film and reel numbers below.
The Sworn statement is dated April 22 but April 21 is written above it and on the cover sheet.
For passengers bound for San Francisco, passengers' names and ages are followed by a stamp
that varies depending on the disposition of the passenger.
Passengers allowed to land have the following stamp:
Landed Collectors order (blank with a month and day date written in) 1898 by Insp's (blank
for a name, in this case O'Leary).
Passengers not allowed to land have one of two different stamps:
Landing Refused Habeas Corpus U.S.D.C. Case followed by a number. These passengers were
probably allowed to land, but not to freely enter the country. The National Archives
should have a file for these passengers describing what happened to them.
Landing Refused Departed Per Steamer ______ (name of ship) _________ (date).
For passengers bound for a further port there are two possible dispositions:
Landed "I.T." Transit List followed by a number
Departed Per Steamer ______ (name of ship) _________ (date)
Occupation is Grocer for all passengers except as noted below.
The following columns had no entries:
Color of Eyes
Physical Marks or Peculiarities and Facts of Identification
Height is entered for passengers not bound for San Francisco, but is not legible for
City of Mexico and Guaymas passengers.
Torreon is in Central Mexico. Callao is the port for Lima, Peru.
According to the National Archives branch in San Bruno, California it is possible that they
have some information on any Chinese passenger who arrived in San Francisco after 1886.
There are a number of passengers listed as Return Laborer. When the Chinese Exclusion Act
was passed in 1882 a number of Chinese who had spent time in the US but had returned to
China at the time of the Act were excluded from returning to the US until 1894 when the
act was amended. A Section 6 Permit is a Merchant's Affidavit issued in China rather than
that collected from white neighbors or associates in the U.S.
There are a number of passengers with U as a name. It is difficult to tell whether it is
upper case or lower case. It usually has a diacritical mark above it that could be a caret,
a tilde or even an acute accent.
It is difficult to decide whether the letter that follows a T is an e or an s, Teang or Tsang for example.
These names are identified below.
5 There is a notation: 14298/4-22.
9 Occupation is "with cousin #9."
11 Teung or Tsung
13 There is a notation: 13710/32.
14 Teang or Tsang.
21 There is a notation: sec 14270/14-1
25 Occupation is "with brother."
46 Tean or Tsan
50 There is a notation: see file. Occupation is "with brother #77."
72 There is no information as to the dispostion of this passenger.
80 There is little difference between the lower case n and u in this hand writing.
Passenger's name could be Chan Lan, or even Chau Lan or Lau.
85 There is little difference between the lower case n and u in this hand writing.
Passenger's name could be Lan.
86 Teeng or Tsang
101 Tean or Tsan
