Transcriber's Note:
A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed
with certainty.
An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the
manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer.
A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.
The recorder of this manifest appears to record many of the names phonetically. One
example is his consistent spelling of the given name "Margaret" as "Margret". When a

the transcriber includes the possible correct spellings in a footnote.
