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.


18 to 25 Country that they intended to reside is questionable as the top and lower halves of
   the manifest were pasted or taped together and a vertical line is drawn down this column
   for all of these passengers that does not extend up into the upper part to the word Upper
   Canada, but stops at the line marking the two parts.
