Transcriber's Notes:

There were no births or deaths on this passage.

The country of which each passenger intends to inhabit is the USA so this
column has been eliminated.

The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to the
quality of the original document.

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