 2 The last name is either Levell or Lerell.
17 The age is 1 year and 4 months.
19 The number of pieces of baggage looks like 23, but it could be a 2 with a smudge after it. In the last column after 
   the number of pieces of baggage are three words. I can't make out the first word, E?? or S??. There are ditto marks in 
   this column for the next 5 passengers.
26 The last name is either Gibson or Gibsen.
