Transcriber's Notes:
The column, "Died on the Voyage" was eliminated from this transcription as there were no
deaths on this passage.
The original lister did not number the passengers, but signed the document at the end. it
appears to be a complete manifest.
This manifest is exceptionally light and difficult to read.
An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which further
explains the entry.
A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the quality
of the document. Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what
the letter/letters may be.
A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original
lister showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.
8,11,12 There seems to be a relationship between these surnames. They appear
very similar. Possiblity: Castenasi, Cadmasi, it just isn't clear. What appears
to be "d" in #11 & 12 may be a very closely-written "st".
10 Brugh, Bruga.
24 This surname may be Evans.
25-26 The manifest is very light at this point. The first letter seems to go down below the
line as would a "J". it looks like it may be Jumbleter, Jumbleker.
27 The given name may be John, but it seems the second letter is an "a". Ja^s or John.
28 This given name could be John, Ja^s. Surname: Gates, Yates.
30 Surname possibilities: Bast, Bart. The missing letter is on the line, neither going
above nor below it.
36 Surname: Name could begin Las--- or Les---. The name could end in "y", or with
an "r" or "n", if the final letter which gives the appearance of a "y" is not
actually a "t" coming up from the name below. Lessmon?
37 it is not clear if this name ends in "t" or not. it may be the "y" coming down from
above. Possibilities: Hugget, Hugge, Jugge.
40-45 Surname: Newall, Newell.
46 This surname is too light to be read. it seems to be John, and the last name may
begin with a "W". All of the other letters are on the line, neither going above,
nor below the line, as in "m", "u", etc.
54 All of the missing letters are on the line, neither going above nor below it, as
in "o", "u".
59 Surname possibilities: Beder, Bedes, Bedei.
60 Surname possibilities: Yaillett, Jaillett, Juillett.
63 The first letter may be an "H" or a "Fl" combination. The next letter appears to
be a "u". Huagham (Haugham?)
64 One of the missing letter goes above the line, as "l", but may be an over-size
"e".
104,105 Surname possibilites: Hennan, Hennard.
106 Surname possibility: Murphy.
110 The missing letters are on the line, neither going above nor below it, as "s",
"e", "n". Render?
128 Given name: Joseph, Josiah?
134 Surname: Hesring, Herring, Hessing.
140 The first letter is very light. Possibilities: Fansekla, Bansekla, Dansekla.
150,151 This surname is very difficult to read. The letter after the Mc may be
an "E" or "C", the next letter may be an "e", or the flourish to the first
letter. THe following is either an "n" or "u" and then the "t", then either
an "l" or "t" and the "sy".
155 Hairland or Haisland.
