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 following notes.

^ Indicates missing letters, usually as the name was abbreviated by the original recorder.

* The destination for all passengers is listed as United States; therefore that column has 
  been omitted.

* There were six pages of this passenger list and the occupation of the first passenger on 
  each page was listed as a 'farmer'; the remaining passenger occupations were left blank; 
  therefore this column has been omitted.

* There were no deaths or births listed on this manifest, although the last column on the page 
  is titled 'Died on the Voyage'. Deaths were not listed, but there are check marks in this 
  column for a few of the passengers and these have been noted in the Transcriber Notes.

* Check marks in the 'Died on the Voyage' column include the following passengers:
  #16, #42, #69 (with the notation 'America' beside the check mark), #148, #177, #201, #215 
  (with the notation 'America' beside the check mark), and #228.

 40  Passenger has 'Gg' as middle name; meaning unknown
 59  Passenger has 'Rt' preceding name; meaning unknown
177  Last name could be Pros/Prox
240  Last name could be Raisant
