Transcriber's Notes:

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

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

  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.

  The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates a passenger's Occupation, such as 
  "Lab" for Laborer.


  2-3   Passengers' Occupation is not clearly written and cannot be decipjered with
        certainty, but might possibly be "Ironworker".
  4-5   Surname is recorded as "Fergason", but might possibly be "Ferguson".
 11-12  Surname appears to be written as "McCane", but might possibly be "McCann"
        or "McCain".
 15     Surname is recorded as "Harly", but might possibly be "Harley".
 17     Surname is recorded as "Sharkly", but might possibly be "Sharkey".
 19     Surname appears to be written as "Braud", but might possibly be "Brand".
