Transcriber's Notes:

*  An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not 
   the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
   in the transcriber's notes.

?  Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the 
   condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.

*  The only line of columns fully filled was the first; all the others have the
   dots ----, meaning the same as the upper column.

*  The first page of the manifest is stamped 135, and handwritted as 
   follows with a different style of text than the passenger list:
 
              8 april 1831
              Brig Isabella y Juan
              Passengers Man (meaning manifest)


Passenger Notes:

# 2 - the surname was written Patiņo.
# 3 - the three initial letters of the first name are: Mij can be a contraction
      for "Miguel".
#10 - "Lor." Pinarez; first name Lor is a contraction for probably: Lorenzo.
#11 - first name (Gab.) can be contraction for: Gabriel.
#16 - first name initial can be a "B" or "P".
#21 - the surname was written Muņoz.
#25-#33 - Passenger number 25 did not have anything marked in the "Country to
      which they belong" and "Country of which they intend to become 
      inhabitants" columns.  Passengers 26 - 33 had dashes in those two 
      columns.  This could mean there was nothing listed (the same as passenger
      25) or could possibly mean that they were all from Spain and intended to
      become inhabitants of Mexico.
