Brig H (Harvest) Queen *

I, Jos Schultz, Master of the Brig H Queen, do solemnly, sincerely, and truly swear that the following List or Manifest, subscribed by me, and now delivered by me to the Collector of the Customs of the Collection District of New York, is a full and perfect List of all the Passengers taken on board the said Brig at Bermauda, from which Port the said Brig has now arrived; and that on said List is truly designated the age, the sex, and the occupation of each of said passengers, the part of the vessel occupied by each during the passage, the country to which each belongs, and also the country of which it is intended by each to become an inhabitant; and that said List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said Passengers who have died on said Voyage and the names and ages of those who died.
So help me God. (Signature) J. Schultz.

Sworn to this 7th May 1868,

  Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that cannot be transcribed 
  definitely.

  An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of 
  the manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader 
  should refer.

* Although this manifest only states the name of the ship as Brig H. Queen, it is
  surely the Brig Harvest Queen.  She made many voyages, all with a Captain Joseph
  Schultz or Scholtz.  There is another Ship Harvest Queen that sailed from Liverpool,
  England during this same time period.  She was 1625 tons with a Captain Charles
  Hutchinson.  This Brig Harvest Queen was a much smaller vessel at only 126 tons 
  and sailed from St. George, Bermuda.

  The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not 
  numbered in the original manifest.

 
  1  Passenger's Occupation is not carefully written and cannot be deciphered.
     No letter, or the number of letters, in the Occupation can be identified.
  2  Middle initial is not carefully formed and cannot be deciphered with certainty,
     but initial is possibly "S" or "Q".
  3  First name initial is not carefully formed and cannot be deciphered with 
     certainty, but initial is possibly "C" or "S".
