Transcriber's Notes:
* The use of an * indicates an omission, error or an explanation of
notations made by the original recorder.
? The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to the
quality of original document.
^ The use of an ^ indicates the latter part of the name was superscribed.
This manifest was numbered by the transcriber.

17 The given name was written as transcribed, there was no beginning capital
letter to indicate what the name really is.
30 Surname could be Peterpu.
40 Surname could be Berty.
45 Although no date was recorded, it is probable that this passenger died during
the voyage as his name is transcribed in the "died" column.
98 There was no given name listed for this passenger.
105 Surname could be Hinlock.
106 Surname could be Schrog.
120 Surname could be Malongh.
123 Age could be 15.
125 Because the y from the surname above covers the unknown letter it is impossible
to decipher it. It could be Cabaly, Cadaly, or Canaly.
140-141 Occupation looks like "Tree Merat" or "Tree Meraty", but transcriber
could not find any word or occupation that coincided with these spellings.
145-147 Surname could be Sangonpic.
164 Although this passenger is listed as male, the given name is clearly Norma.
169 Surname could be Sornger or Songer.
170 Name transcribed as written.
173-175 In the occupation column for passenger 173 was written Ohglnd, then crossed
out, but then dittoed for passengers 174 and 175. Country of origin was
also written as Endlnd, but this transcriber believes that to be England.
201 Surname could be Barty.
