Brig Mary Jane
I, James Edward, Master of the Brig Mary Jane of Belfast, do solemnly swear that the within list contains, to the best of my knowledge and belief, a true account of all the passengers who have been taken on board the said Brig at Westport, or any other foreign port or at sea and brought in the said vessel into any District of the United States since her departure from the said port of Westport.
Sworn to this 4th day of May 1847 James Edward
Before me ?????
List of passengers taken on board the Brig Mary Jane of Belfast at Westport.
Columns represent: Name, Age, Sex, Occupation, Country to which they belong and country of which they intend to become inhabitants. The last two columns have been eliminated because all passengers were from Ireland and were going to the United States. The Occupation column has also been eliminated since the information given was not legible.
