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 letters that could not be read, due to
quality of original document.
There were no deaths on this passage, therefore the death column has been
eliminated.
*The word Passenger is spelled Passsenger on this printed form
*The term steerage was given its own line, as if the term applied to everyone
except John Gratton.
?Looks like Jno (John?)
