Transcriber's Notes:
* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not the transcriber,
or is used to call your attention to additional information in the transcriber's notes.
? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the condition of the
manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
^ A ^ followed by a letter indicates that the letter was superscripted.
* Names were transcribed as seen regardless of spelling.
* None died during the voyage, therefore this coloumn was eliminated.
* Columns for country to which passengers intended to become residents and location
on board the ship were deleted and the information is shown before each section.

99 I think that this person was from Italy as were passengers 102 to 104 and had the
name "Di Razo" or; DiRago; furthermore it appears that the clerk listed these
passengers with their surnames as gven names. All of the passengers from Italy were
listed witheir surames in the given name column.
114-118 The clerk may have used "G" as ditto marks, i.e it's likely that these passengers
were related to passenger 113, and that they all had the surname Bragio.
