Transcriber's Notes:

The ^ is used on names which were abbreviated
? indicates that name is difficult to read 

There were no births or deaths on this voyage

The list was recorded with first name first and last name last. We reversed the order and put 
last name first


 1-4   The Kellys, from Letterkenny.  In the book, there are only 3 Kellys 
       listed: James (no age), James 12, and Mary 11.  
 5     Eliza Williams, from Ramelton.  Baggage could belong to Passenger #6
 6     Margaret Greer, from Dunfanaghy.  Uncertain if baggage was in her line 
       or for previous passenger.  Greer could be Green
 7     Catherine Boyle, from Dunfanaghy.
 8-11  The browns, from Letterkenny.
 12    in book spelled Margaret Gregg, from Ballymoney.
 13-16 the McLaughlins, from Carn.  Eleanor is listed as 6 years old in  book,
       and spelled Elleanor.
 17    in book, Jane McElhenny, from Letterkenny.
 18    Alexander Moorhead, from Convoy.
 19    Andrew Allen, from Convoy.
 20    in book, William McNeal, from Newtownstewart.
 21    Alexander Stephenson, from Newtownstewart.
 22-23 in the book, Ellen (not Allen) and Sophia McGarrity, from Newtownstewart.
 24    Mary Gamble, from Coleraine.
 25-26 the McLaughlins, from Carn.
 27-28 the Pattons, from Ballymoney.
 29-30 in the book, James (not William) and Mary Ward, from Castlegrove.
 31    in the book, James Conway, from Castlegrove.
 32    in the book, John Callen, from Castlegrove.
 33    in the book, James Greer, from Carrygart.  Looks like Green on manifest.
 34    in the book, Catherine Doherty, from Clonmany.
 35    Owen Harkin, from Clonmany.
 36    Sarah Crawford, from Portrush.
 37    Robert Lowry in book, from Newtowncunningham.

 45    Charles Mulherrin, from Dunfanaghy.
 48    surname possiby Martin.
 52    surname could be McLurggen or McSurggen.
 56-57 uncertain whose baggage it was.
 59    it looks as if the name Eliza was written before Margt. and then crossed out.
       But perhaps it was not crossed out, only on a damaged area.
 65    surname Millen or Miller.
 72-73 though the ages written were in the 20's, they were marked as child.
 85    surname could be Colton, or Collon, or Cotton.
 
There was also an Anne Coyle, from Letterkenny, found in the book, 
who was not found on the actual manifest, though there is a William Coyle #84, 
but not necessarily a connection.
