Transcriber's Notes:

 A * indicates an error on the part of the original record or is used to call your attention 
 to additional information in the Transcriber or Passenger notes.

 A ? indicates letters or words that cannot be read due to the quality of the original 
 document, and is clarified in the Transcriber or Passenger Notes.

 A ^ is used to note the following letter is raised (superscript).
 The cover sheet says Cha^s, however the manifest statement says Chs.

 1  Surname is Lyons or Lyens. Occupation begins with a looped mark that looks like the 
    curved part of a B that is turned on its side so the loop is downward, and it is at 
    the high part of the word.  Then there is a break, and a downward stroke, followed 
    by a u and then an upward stroke like an 'l', followed by another upward stroke with 
    an ending to the right about half way down.  Taken together it looks like a looped mark 
    followed by lulh.
