Transcriber's notes:

*  The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the
   original recorder; or a clarification by the transcriber.

?  The use of a ? indicates a letter that could not be 
   deciphered, due to the quality of the original document.

^  The use of a caret ^ indicates the following letter/s of 
   the word are superscripted.

*  The column "Died on the Voyage" and the sub-column "Months"
   have no entries, therefore they are omitted.

*  Captain: The first writing of the captainšs name is not a
   signature and is spelled Sulliven and in the Manifest 
   heading, the Masteršs name is slurred, looking like Sullvn;
   the two actual signatures are clearly Sullevin

*  Collector of Customs (in the sworn statement): Name is
   indecipherable. It may end with the abbreviation "DC" 
   which probably stands for "Deputy Collector"
