Transcriber's Notes:
The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original 
  recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letter that could not be read, 
  due to the quality of the original document.   
The column Died on the voyage was eliminated as there were no entries.
In the sworn statement the * next to Lpool indicates an abbreviation 
  of Liverpool.
The Signature of the Deputy Collector is illegible. It looks like Rnymis.
The * next to passenger number 7 occupation represents what I believe 
  to be an abbreviation for the word Laborer.This applies also to 
  passengers 8, 10, 15-19, 21-23, 28-31, 33-36, 39-48, 50-52, 54, 58, 
  60,67-71,77-78, 80, 85-86, 88-92, 95-96, 104, 107, 109-111, 113, 115, 
  117-120. 
The * next to passenger number 12 occupation represents an abbreviation 
  for Infant. This also applies to passenger numbers 87, 94, 97, and 103.
Passenger 23's name could end in ie, Darmickie, or a u, Darmicku.
Passenger 33's last name looks like Canavan.
Passenger 58 and 59 are listed last name first, then first name in 
  contrast to the rest of the list.
Passenger 64's last name looks like Mursey but could also be Mussey. 
  His age appears to be 41 but the second number is faint and incomplete.
In passenger 70's last name the first letter does not resemble any other 
  capital letters on the list. It most resembles a D, or G but is really 
  not a match to any of these seen elsewhere on the list. It possibly 
  could be a middle initial C written almost on top of a capital T and 
  that is what it most looks like.
Passengers 83 and 84's last name could be Asnoran or Amoran.
Passenger 89's last name could be Torr, Ters, Tors or Tirs.
Passengers 96 and 97's last name could be Bulstack, Bulslack, Butstack 
  or Butstack.
Passenger 120's last name could be Morelow or Mordow.
Passengers 137 and 138's last name could be Gourd or Gaunt.
Passenger 151's last name could be Whiller or Whitter. His age could 
  be 36 or 38.
Passenger 156's sex is listed as female but wiht a first name of Henry 
  and occupation of Gent this is in error.
Passenger 158's last name appears to be Northmere.
Passengers 163-167's last name could be Lees or Leon.
Passenger 171's age is blurred bit could be 42, 43 or 45.
Passenger 172's last name is very blurry and distorted in the copy. It 
  appears to be Ruttroff but might also be Rumroff.
Passenger 176's last name could be Thenfilder.
Passenger 176's occupation is probably Merchant and this applies as 
  well to passengers 177-180, 182, 187-189, 193-195.
In Passenger 188's last name the letters after the S appear to be ey 
  this would make the last name Seyfford.
Passenger 190, the * indicates that Benj appears to be an abbreviation 
  of Benjamin.
At the bottom of the passenger number column a line is drawn and the 
  number 195 written to total the passengers.
