Transcriber's Notes:

The column, "Date and Cause of Death" was eliminated from this transcription as there 
were no deaths on this passage.

The original lister did not number the passengers and did not provide a recapitulation
at the end of the Manifest, but it appears 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 
the letter/letters may be.
