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 column was eliminated.

*  Columns for country to which passengers intended to become residents and 
   location on board the ship were deleted and the information is shown before 
   each section.
