DISTRICT OF NEW YORK - PORT OF NEW YORK
I, R. Cunningham, Master of the Ship Great Western, do solemnly,
sincerely, and truly swear that the following List or Manifest, subscribed by
me, and now delivered by me to the Collector of the Customs of the Collection
District of New York, is a full and perfect List of all the Passengers taken
on board the said Ship at Liverpool from which Port the
said Ship has
now arrived; and that on said List is truly designated the age, the sex, and
the occupation of each of said passengers, the part of the vessel occupied by
each during the passage, the country to which each belongs, and also the
country of which it is intended by each to become an inhabitant; and that said
List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said Passengers who have died
on said Voyage and the names and ages of those who died.
So help me God.

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 entry "United States" in the native country and destination country columns
is shortened to "U. States" for formatting reasons. "Male" and "Female" in the
Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason.
2 Surname appears to be written as "Amberson", but might possibly be "Anderson".
3 Surname is recorded as "Hefferson", but might possibly be "Heffernan".
6 Surname appears to be either "Mewth" or "Meuth".
22 Surname is recorded as "Doughy", but might possibly be "Doughty".
31 Surname appears to be written as "Marooney" or "Morooney", but might
possibly be "Moroney".
37 Given name is either "Mary" or "Marg".
42 Surname appears to be recorded as "Hays", but might possibly be "Hayes".
47 A notation associated with this passenger states that she had previously
"Landed in N.Y., Ship E. C. Scrantion, 1855".

96 Surname appears to be recorded as "McCanty", but might possibly be "McCarty".
111 Surname appears to be written as "Hacke", but might possibly be "Hasker".
112 Letters of surname are not carefully formed and cannot be deciphered with
certainty, but name might possibly be "Tierney".
117 Passenger has the masculine given name "John" and Occupation listed as
"Mechanic", yet Sex is recorded as "Female", likely a recording error.
135 Surname is recorded as "Heifernan", but might possibly be "Heffernan".
143-144 Surname is recorded as "Gillgallen", but might possibly be "Kilgallen".
174 Letters of surname are not carefully formed and cannot be deciphered.
