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.

^  A ^ followed by a letter indicates that the letter was superscripted.

*  Names were transcribed as seen regardless of spelling.

*  Passengers were numbered by the transcribers for ease of referencing.

*  The country of which they intend to become inhabitants is the United States so 
   this coloumn was eliminated.

*  None died during the voyage, therefore this coloumn was eliminated.


11:        Crease in manifest caused first name to be blacked out.
40 & 41:   Surname may be Stauten or Stauteer.
99 & 100:  Surname may be Mansley.
