Transcriber's Notes
* An asterisk indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
* The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to quality 
  of original document.
* There are 2 letters before the name of L. Davis, they appear to be Oh,On or possibly M.
* After the name of Davis, there is a D and what appears to be a large inverted
  comma that covers about 3 lines, probably C for Deputy Collector.
* Passenger # 5 age could be 7 or 9.  If 9, could possibly be twin of Passenger # 3. 
  The Robb children appear to be listed by age.
* Passengers # 12, 13 & 14, not sure if its TT at the end of the name.
* Passenger # 39, occupation could be brewer, but it looks like Brener,
  which makes no sense.
* Passenger # 45, age could be 16 or 10.
* Passengers # 46 & # 49, first names are listed as Christian, the spelling appears 
  masculine, however they are listed as females. 
* Passenger # 48, occupation could be shirt dealer or spirit dealer.
* Passenger # 56, last letter of last name appears to be g. 
* Passenger # 58, not sure of occupation.
* Passenger # 59, first name is not legible, looks like Mns. 
* There were no births or deaths listed on this passage, therefore the birth/death 
  column has been eliminated.
