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.

*  No mention is nted as to where the passengers intended to reside so this column is not shown.


 15, 16   Occupations for these passengers may have been reversed; passenger 16 is named
          "Capt." so that it's possible that he was the mariner, and Passenger 15 was the
          printer.
 20       Surname may be Basing or Baring.
