of age. The tallies are totalled, giving 416 passengers over age 1
and 24 under age 1 for a total of 440. 13 died on the passage,
leaving 427.
Four Hundred & Twenty Seven Steerage Passengers now on board.

The printed manifest was intended to be for New York. The word 'York'
was crossed off and 'Orleans' written for the District, but the Port
still states 'New York'.
The word 'swear' was spelled 'swaire' in the captain's statement.
The captain numbered only every 5th name. The remainder of the
numbers were added by the transcriber for ease of identification
of passengers.
The destination of all passengers was 'Utah Territory, U. S.'
Although it was stated that 13 passengers died on the voyage, only
12 can be verified by notation of having died.
Passenger notes:
7 Olsen - the first digit of the age is slightly written over.
The age appears to be '73' but it could be '13'
19 Christensen - Abelone, age 2, died on the 10th of February
38 Stafferson - Sophia W. age 2, died on the 26th of January
60 Petersen - Niels, age 5 months, died on the 9th of February
69 Nielsen - Anne, age 26, died on the 18th of February
97,98 Peterson - Sven, age 5, had a notation that he died on the 18th of
February, but the notation was crossed out. There is a checkmark
under the notation on the line where Johann, age 2 is listed, so
perhaps Johann died on the voyage.
123 Petersen - Peter, age 75, died on the 14th of January
125 Jensen - Karen, age 2, died on the 4th of February
169 Andersen - Mikel P., age 8, died on the 29th of January
172 Andersen - Hedevig D., age 1, died on the 12th of January
184 Hansen - Maren, age 3, died on the 2nd of February
207 Larsen - Just, age 70, died on the 24th of January
241,242 Christensen - notation that 1 female child born January 17th
