Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder. ^ A ^ followed by a letter indicates that the letter was superscripted. * Names were transcribed as seen regardless of spelling. * None died during the voyage, therefore this coloumn was eliminated. * All passengers intended to become residents of the United States so that column was omitted. * Column for accommodation was omitted and information is shown before each section.
