Transcriber's Notes:

* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not
  the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
  in the transcriber's notes.

? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
  condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
    
The Collector's name, R?zso??ari?al? cannot be read due to the writing.    
There were no births or deaths during the voyage, therefore, the birth/death 
column was eliminated.
Passengers 1-17 were numbered on the manifest; transcriber has added numbers
18-42.

17  Passenger #17, occupation looks like it might read Nurse, but writing not 
    legible.
24  William McElherman, 4 years of age, has a double line drawn through his 
    entire entry.  Might indicate he did not sail on the ship.
