*the name of the ship
*its port(s) and date(s) of departure
*its port(s) and date(s) of arrival in Canada
*the name, age, sex, profession or occupation, nationality and destination of each passenger aboard
*In some of the earlier manifests, personal information is omitted for wives, minor children, groups of labourers and first and second class passengers. *Depending on the date, some lists contain other information on the immigrants, such as their '''health, religion, previous visits to Canada, family relationships and cash on hand'''.<ref> "Passenger Liss 1865-1935''', at Library and Archives Canada, https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/immigration/immigration-records/passenger-lists/passenger-lists-1865-1922/Pages/introduction.aspx, accessed 18 April 2021.</ref>
