Transcriber's Notes:

The column, "Died on the Voyage" was eliminated.  There was one death only - that of
Passenger #114, Mrs John Califfe.  No further information is known.
 
A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the
quality of the document.  Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's
Notes of what this letter/letters may be.

An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which 
further explains the entry.

A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name. The original lister 
showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.
  
  7  Surname.  This name is difficult to read.  The third letter looks like an "s"
     and there may be a dot for an "i" after it.  A possibility is Wynne.
 42  There is an "X" next to the name of this passenger.  Possibly it means that he
     was ill on the voyage.
 82  There is an "X" next to the name of this passenger.  Possibly it means that he
     was ill on the voyage.
 86  Surname:  Bott or Batt.
103  The sex is not indicated.
114  This passenger is noted as having died on the passage.
123  There is an "X" next to the name of this passenger.  Possibly it means that he
     was ill on the voyage.
142  This occupation is difficult to read.  It does, however, seem to say "Songgist",
     whatever that may be.
154 and 155  Surname:  Rudth, Ruedth.
223  There is an "X" next to the name of this passenger.  Possibly it means that he
     was ill on the voyage.
235  There is an "X" next to the name of this passenger.  Possibly it means that he
     was ill on the voyage.
