Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed 
  definitely.

  An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the 
  manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer.

  A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.

  The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not 
  numbered in the original manifest.

  The Occupation of every passenger in steerage class whether male, female, child or
  infant is listed as "Labourer".  The transcriber believes this was done solely 
  for the recorder's convenience and likely has little or no correlation to the 
  passengers' actual Occupations.

  The entry "Great Britain" in the Native Country and Destination Country columns is 
  shortened to "Gt Britain" for formatting reasons.  


  6-8   Surname appears to be written as "Frams", but might possibly be "Frame" or
        "Francis".
 14     Surname is recorded as "McGee", but might possibly be "Magee".
 17-18  Surname is recorded as "Goghegan", but might possibly be "Geoghegan".
 23     Surname appears to be written as "Boy", but might possibly be "Boag".
 24     Name is recorded as "Wm Herring", but a notation associated with this
        passenger states "W^m Heron".
 40-42  Surname is partially obscured by damage to the manifest and cannot be 
        deciphered with certainty.
 43-44  Surname is Possibly "Quin", "Quinn" or "Dunn".
