Columns represent: name in full; age; sex; calling or occupation; read; write; country of which they are citizens; native country; last residence; intended destination, state or territory; number of pieces of baggage; port of embarkation.
The following columns were left blank and therefore eliminated from this list: state citizens of U.S.A, location of compartment or space occupied forward, midships or aft; and date and cause of death. All passengers were listed as Settler, so the column "transit, in transit or intending protacted sojourn" was also eliminated.
