Blanks in age column were like that on the manifest. * If I wanted to make a guess on the Collector's name, I'd say maybe Archibald Di Cal. 9. Could be Moloney. 10. Could be Rasmussen. 11. Could be Hamsdotter. 16. Could be Corrigan. 36-43. Last few letters could be anything. 55-56. Could be Mannais. 58. Fold in paper, can't make out missing letters. 86, Could be Gie or Gee. 92. Missing letter could be a D or W.
