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.

*  All passengers intended to be residents of the United States so this column is not shown.
