Transcriber's Notes:
The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to quality of original
document.
The use of a ^ indicates that the letter/letters following are superscripted.
The two columns titled 1) Country to which they severally belong and 2) Country in which they
intend to become inhabitants have been eliminated, as it is noted by the Master on each page
of the list that all passengers belong to Great Britain and all passengers intend to become
inhabitants of Great Britain.
22 M??? Hyam. Could be Moris or Mour.
156 M?rion Stevenson. Appears to be Mirion or Marion.
184 Jane S???? Brown. Middle name appears to begin with the letter S, but otherwise is
illegible.
260 Samuel Linch. The second digit in age is unclear; appears to be a 0 or 1.
302 Jane Brown. Probably should be Female i/o Male due to name.
282-320 These passengers are grouped under the heading Second Cabin.
