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.

*  Names were transcribed as seen regardless of spelling.						
*  Passengers were numbered by the transcribers for ease of referencing.						


 28  Given name is unusual and can not be certain of the first one or two letters, no ditto marks
     in the surname column so can not be sure of what that was, and age was lined through so that
     it can not be read. 
 33  Names are very faint, no ditto mark for surname.
 51  May be letter(s) before the first letter of the surname, like maybe the surname is M^cOrton.
 88, 89 ages were overwritten, may be 18 and 13, respectively.
124 to 126 Cabin passengers.
