Transcriber's notes:

15 age unclear
62 the name could be STEER? 
  
* the original text was crossed out and United States was written above    
the entries. I thought the more specific destinations merited being shown.
I have shown the crossed out text in parenthesis.
    
** although the ships actual text says the ship entered NY on July 30th    
of 1854  it is recorded on the film as arriving on Aug 30 1854.
All ships on this reel are from Aug 29th forward.

Where entries are blank, nothing was written on the manifest

FHC Film #0175501 Record #1169
