The original lister numbered the passengers, but did not provide a recapitulation at the end of the document. It seems to be a complete manifest. An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which further explains the entry. 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. The word "yes" is written in the last column for some passengers. It is not known what this signifies. It would not concern their planning on staying in the United States for at times it separated families with young children. 27 Bonson, Benson. 38 Part of the surname is obscured by the "g" from above.
