Transcriber's Notes:

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

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

  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.

  A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is 
  superscripted.

  The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates a passenger's Calling, 
  i.e., as "Lab" for Labourer.

  
  1     Surname appears to be written as "Britin" or "Brilin", but might
        possibly be "Britton" or "Brittain".
  5     Given name appears to be either "Mary" or "Marg".
  6-7   Surname appears to be either "Schoner" or "Schouer".
 10-14  Surname appears to be written as "Schufelbine", but might 
        possibly be "Schufelbein".
 15-18  Surname appears to be written as "Garky", but might possibly 
        be "Gorky".
 18     Given name is either "Sustime" or "Sustune".
 19-20  Surname is recorded as "Rossen", but might possibly be "Rosen".
 22     Surname is either "Rauder" or "Rander".
 26     Surname is either "Schilarky" or "Schilasky".
 28     Surname is recorded as "Salymane", but might possibly be "Saloman".
