Transcriber's Notes: 

* There were also a number of other immigrants in the Boston Town 
  Books who reported that they arrived in this year, but no ship 
  name was recorded for them.  It is possible that some of them 
  were also on board this ship.     

 #40-41 surnames spelled differently, but perhaps should be the same.

* The information for this list was originally published in 1914 
  in the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society XIII, 
  "Irish Immigrants to New England - Extracts from the Minutes of
  the Selectmen of the Town of Boston, Mass.", by Michael O'Brien, 
  pp. 177-187.  

* This information was subsequently printed in at least two other 
  volumes of information on early American settlers.  The first 
  volume was "Ship Passenger Lists" by Carl Boyer 3rd, pub. in 1977, 
  in Newhall, California.  Library of Congress Catalogue number 76-37355.

* The second resource where this was found was "New World Immigrants", 
  volume 1, by Michael Tepper, pub. in 1980 by Genealogical 
  Publishing Co., Inc., Baltimore.  ISBN: volume 1: 0-8063-0852-4.
