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. * Passenger numbers assigned by transcriber for ease of reference. * Manifest clearly states that the name of this ship is Brig Leander, but Ancestry.com lists it as Leader. * All passengers intended to become residents of the U.S. therefore this column is not shown. 11 Note states that Sarah Prosser died on passage (9 months). 18 Occupation is unreadable, maybe Joiner
