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 letters in that
   word are superscripted.

*  The column "Died on the Voyage" is headed with "None";
   therefore this column is omitted. 

*  The column "Country to which they intend to become 
   inhabitants" IS the same as the "Country to which 
   they belong". Both have "ditto" and "do" (an
   alternate ditto) written throughout the record. All
   have been transcribed to indicate the antecedent.

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

Passenger # 9 - Surname could be Milliam
Passenger #10 - Surname may be Durant or Dwiant
Passenger #13 - Surname could be Gosenan, Gorenan, Gorman;
                the middle letter/s cannot be deciphered because 
                the "y" from name above it comes down into the 
                middle of the name.
Passenger #42-45 - Surname is probably Hurly, but may 
                be Harly
Latter Day Saints Family History Library Film #0002256
