   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.
 
*  Names were transcribed as seen regardless of spelling.
*  Passengers where numbered by the transcribers for ease of referencing.
*  None died during the voyage, therefore this coloumn was eliminated.
*  The destination for all passengers was "United States of America", therefore this coloumn
   has been eliminated.
