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 handwriting of the recorder is quite poor and many of the names and occupations
  are nearly impossible to decipher.  The transcriber made every effort to decipher and 
  transcribe the names and occupations correctly.  In cases in which the word could not
  be transcribed with certainty, alternatives are given in the Transcriber's Notes below.
  However, the transcription is likely to include some errors and the reader is cautioned
  to view the transcribed names and occupations with some suspicion.


 22-24   Passenger's destination is recorded as "Canada Albert", likey intending
         Alberta, Canada. 
 42      Letters of given name are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but name might possibly be "Henry".
 50      Passenger's Age is not recorded.
 67-71   Surname appears to be either "Keepyer" or "Keepyen".
 74-92   These passengers are recorded as being from "Germany", yet the surname appear
         to be more likely English, possibly a recording error.
 76      Letters of given name are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but name might possibly be "Charles".
 77      Surname is possibly "Turner" or "Jurner".
 78      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but the Occupation might possibly be "Tanner" or "Farmer".
 78-81   Surname is recorded as "Hetch", but might possibly be "Hatch".
 83      Passenger's destination is recorded as "Canada Albert", likey intending
         Alberta, Canada.  Last part of passenger's Occupation cannot be deciphered
         with certainty, but might possibly be "Maker".
 88-92   Surname is recorded as "Hagarty", but might possibly be "Haggerty".
 90      Given name might possibly be "Caroline".
 93      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered.
 94      Surname appears to be written as "Cumus", but might possibly be "Camus" or "Camas".
 99      Surname is recorded as "Barny", but might possibly be "Barney".
107      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but Occupation is possibly "Joiner", "Farmer" or "Fireman".
112      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered.  
         A notation about death of an infant "on 29th ???" is associated with this and the 
         next passenger, but the note is not clearly written and cannot be deciphered.
115      Passenger's Age is overwritten and not decipherable.
127      Letters of given name are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered.
131      Passenger's Age is not distinctly written and cannot be deciphered with certainty,
         but Age might possibly be either 4 or 21 months.
132      Passenger's Occupation is not recorded, but recorder might have intended it to
         be the same as the Occupation of the last adult male above, "Basketmaker".
161      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered, but
         the Occupation appears to begin with "T", and might possibly be "Tutress".
162      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but Occupation is possibly "Farmer".
166      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but Occupation is possibly "Farmer" or "Baker".

         but might possibly be "Travis"..
182      Letters of Occupation are not distinctly formed and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but Occupation is possibly "Joiner".
186      Surname appears to be either "Jack" or "Jock".
188-191  Surname appears to be written as "Schaessen", but might possibly be "Schaefer".
