Transcriber's Notes:

An (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the original recorder 
or to call attention to additional information in the transcribers notes below.

The use of (?) indicates a letter that cannot be transcribed definitely.

The use of (^) indicates that the letter or letters following are superscripted.

The word swear or declare was not included in the sworn statement of the original manifest.

The signature of the witness is illegible and cannot be transcribed definitely.

All passengers were originally recorded as going to the United States so the column 'Country 
of which it is intended by each to become an inhabitant' has been omitted.

There were no deaths recorded on this voyage so that column has been omitted.

All passengers were originally recorded as being in steerage, so the column 'Part of vessel 
occupied by each during the passage' has been omitted.

The original recorder did not number the passengers; the numbers have been added by the 
transcriber.

All ditto marks on the original manifest have been replaced with the actual words intended.

The original spelling was preserved by the transcriber.

The original recorder has entered Inft in the month portion of the age column for 17 passengers. 
This probably indicates Infant, as the original recorder also listed the same passengers as 
Infants in the Occupation column.
