Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not 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.

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

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

  The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates given names by writing the first few 
  letters of the name, then skipping letters and then writing the final letter as 
  superscripted.  In these cases, the transcriber uses the symbol (^) to indicate that 
  the following letter is superscripted, i.e., Tho^s for Thomas, Sam^l for Samuel,
  W^m for William, etc.  Othertimes, the recorder abbreviates names by writing the 
  first few letters, skipping letters and then adding the final letter of the name,
  i.e., Patk for Patrick, Margt for Margaret, Thos for Thomas, etc..

  The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates a passenger's Occupation, such as 
  "Spin", "Spins" or "Spinst" for Spinster, "Sv^t", "Sev^t or "Serv^t for Servant,
  "Mech" for Mechanic and "Labr" for Laborer.

  The entry "United States" in the destination country column is shortened to 
  "U. States" for formatting reasons.  "Male" and "Female" in the Sex column are 
  shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason. 


  3-4    Last part of surname is not clearly written and cannot be deciphered with
         certainty, but name might possibly be "Trowning".
 11      Damage to the manifest partially obscurs the given name and surname
         resulting in uncertain transcription accuracy.
 12      Damage to the manifest obscurs this passenger's given name and surname.
 12-14   Surname of these passengers is the same as the undecipherable surname
         of passenger number 12 obscured by damage to the manifest.
 35      Surname is recorded as "Grahm", but might possibly be "Graham".
 38      Given name is not clearly written and cannot be deciphered nwith certainty,
         but name appears to be written as "Uf^t" or "Alf^t".
 44-46   Surname is possibly "Maugh", "Maughs" or "Mauths".
 65      Damage to the manifest obscures the given name and renders it undecipherable.
 66      Damage to the manifest obscures this passenger's given name, surname and
         Occupation rendering them undecipherable.  Given name might possibly be
         "Tho^s".
 67-69   Only ditto marks occupy the surname column implying the same family surname
         as is obscured by damage to the manifest for passenger number 66.
 90-93   Surname is recorded as "Gerant", but might possibly be "Geran" or "Grant".
 94      Surname is recorded as "Michum", but might possibly be "Mitchum".
 95      Surname is recorded as "Hautley", but might possibly be "Haughley", 
         "Hartley" or "Haughy".
110      Surname is recorded as "Donahue", but might possibly be "Donohue".
120-121  Given names are not clearly written and cannot be deciphered.
121-122  Surname is recorded as "Donell", but might possibly "Donnell". 
123      Surname is possibly "Hames" or "Hanses".
134      Surname is either "Soner" or "Saner".
141      The Sex of this infant passenger is not recorded, but one can infer from the
         given name "Tho^s" that the infant is Male.
144      Surname is recorded as "Stakpole" or "Stokpole", but might possibly 
         be "Stacpoole".
148      Surname is recorded as "Flyn", but might possibly be "Flynn".

160      Surname is recorded as "Kearley", but might possibly be "Kearly".
163      Surname is recorded as "Roache", but might possibly be "Roche".
