Jean 18 male France Labourer General Notes: In the sworn statement, N. Orleans is misspelled as N Orlens. The occupation servant is misspelled servent several times. Passenger Notes: 21 Castaing - Given name Bern??? is partly covered by a blot. The last letter appears to be a 'd', so the name may be Bernard. 27 Doull?t - Surname could be Doullut or Doullat. The letter in question may have a grave accent over it. 51 Doussa?-Bergé - Surname could be Doussan-Bergé or Doussau-Bergé 54 Labesque - Given name has 2 letters superscripted after the B. The first letter looks like an 'm' and the second like a 'g' or a 'y'. 77 One?lhé - The questionable letter could be an 'i'. There is no separated dot, but the writer occasionally makes an 'i' this way. The name could be Oneilhé 136 Debu? - The last letter is overwritten, but it is shaped like an 's'. The surname is probably Debus. Transcription copyright © Mary Ross
