Transcriber's Notes:

   An asterisk is used to call your attention to additional information 
in the Transcriber's Notes.

   The ? marks indicates letters or words that cannot be read due to the 
quality of the original document.

   The copy of the manifest that I received had a large section of the 
right side missing.  I had to search for sections from previously 
transcribed manifests of the same time period to have the correct wording 
of the sworn statement.  My copy did not show a died on voyage column.

   At the top left hand corner of the manifest is written: Sold by Wm. E. 
Sibell, Stationer, 1 Nassau, cor. of Wall.  

 * Passengers:
  1 - Coyluce - first name looks like Comes. 
  3 - Ga???s - the name could be Garins or Gaines.
  5 - Crocker - the ? letters in the first name, R????: 1st letter could be 
       "e" or "u"; 2nd letter is "h", "l", or "t"; last letters could be 
       "ere", "re", or "ue". 
  6 - Disformnead - his first name could be Andrew.
