Transcriber's Notes:

A question mark (?) is used to show letter/letters which could not be read because 
of the quality of the document.  Where possible a suggestion of what this might be 
is given in the transcriber's notes.

An asterisk (*) is used to refer items which are further explained in the 
transcriber's notes.

The original lister did not number the list; this was done by the trancriber.

The column, "Died on voyage" was not included in this transcription as there were 
no deaths on the voyage.

The original lister used abbreviations for the occupations:
      Carpt - Carpenter
      Lab & Labor - Laborer
      Mat -  Matron
      Mech - Mechanic
      Mcht - Merchant
      Svt  - Servant
