Transcriber's Notes:

The column, "Date and Cause of Death" was eliminated from this transcription as there 
were no deaths on this passage.  However, there was one birth - Passenger #77, sex
unknown, was given the name Orient.

The original lister numbered the passengers and signed the manifest.  He did not provide a
recapitulation at the end of the document.

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 this letter/letters may be.

A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original 
lister showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.

  56  The given name appears to be a feminine one, yet the passenger is listed as a
      male, labourer.
  80  Kranchrer, Kranchren.
