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.
*  Ship's name on manifest was read by Ancestry.com as Sara Levina. In general, the script was
   carelessly done so many of the names are questionable.
*  All passengers were from Ireland except for number 9 who was from America, so this column
   is not shown.
*  All passengers intended to reside in the U.S. so this column is not shown.
