We have numbered it for ISTG records. Where an exact number of ladies, servants and children have been listed, we have assigned a number for each; where the word family or children was used without an exact number we have assigned four numbers. Do not take our assigned numbers to signify that four is correct. There is no other information on passengers. Most passengers are most likely from the East Coast of USA, part of gold rush.
