Transcriber's Notes:
The column, "Date and Cause of Death" was eliminated from this transcription as there were no
deaths on this passage.
The original lister numbered the passengers, but began numbering from #1 again for the cabin
passengers. This transcriber has continued the numbers consecutively for easier reference.
An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which further explains
the entry.
A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the quality of
the document. Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what the
letter/letters may be.
A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original lister
showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.
44 This passenger has an "x" after his name. At times listers used this to denote someone
who was ill on the voyage.
89 This passenger has an "x" after his name, which may indicate that he was ill on the voyage.
110 The name seems to be Foleny, but may actually be Foley. It is very light, if there is
something beyond the "y"
116 The given name is definitely a female name, yet this passenger is listed as a male,
laborer.
132 This passenger has an "x" after her name. It may be that she was ill on the voyage.
